Averievite, Cu$_5$V$_2$O$_{10}$(CsCl), is an oxide mineral composed of Cu$^{2+}$ kagome layers sandwiched by Cu$^{2+}$-V$^{5+}$ honeycomb layers. We have synthesized this oxide and investigated its properties from ab initio calculations along with susceptibility and specific heat measurements. The data indicate a Curie-Weiss temperature of 185 K as well as long-range magnetic order at 24 K due to the significant interlayer coupling from the honeycomb copper ions. This order is suppressed by substituting these coppers by isoelectronic zinc, suggesting that Zn-substituted averievite is a promising spin liquid candidate. A further proposed substitution that replaces V$^{5+}$ by Ti$^{4+}$ not only dopes the material, but is predicted to give rise to a two-dimensional electronic structure featuring Dirac crossings. As such, averievite is an attractive platform for S=1/2 kagome physics with the potential for realizing novel electronic states.
In the search for spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnets, the mineral volborthite has recently been the subject of experimental studies [Hiroi et al.,2001]. It has been suggested that the magnetic properties of this material are described by a spin-1/2 Hei
A clear thermal Hall signal ($kappa_{xy}$) was observed in the spin liquid phase of the $S=1/2$ kagome antiferromagnet Ca kapellasite (CaCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_2cdot 0.6$H$_2$O). We found that $kappa_{xy}$ is well reproduced, both qualitatively and quanti
We report bulk magnetization, and elastic and inelastic neutron scattering measurements under an external magnetic field, $H$, on the weakly coupled distorted kagome system, Cu_{2}(OD)_3Cl. Our results show that the ordered state below 6.7 K is a can
The kagome lattice is a fertile platform to explore topological excitations with both Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein statistics. While relativistic Dirac Fermions and flat-bands have been discovered in the electronic structure of kagome metals, the sp
We use scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) to elucidate the atomically resolved electronic structure in strongly correlated topological kagome magnet Mn$_3$Sn. In stark contrast to its broad single-particle electronic structure, we obs
