A new charge-ordered magnetically frustrated mixed-metal fluoride with a pyrochlore-related structure has been synthesized and characterized. The material, RbFe2F6 (RbFe2+Fe3+F6) was synthesized through mild hydrothermal conditions. The material exhibits a three-dimensional pyrochlore-related structure consisting of corner-shared Fe2+F6 and Fe3+F6 octahedra. In addition to single crystal diffraction data, neutron powder diffraction and magnetometry measurements were carried out. Magnetic data clearly reveal strong antiferromagnetic interactions (a Curie-Weiss temperature of -270 K) but sufficient frustration to prevent ordering until 16 K. No structural phase transformation is detected from the variable temperature neutron diffraction data. Infrared, UV -vis, thermogravimetric, and differential thermal analysis measurements were also performed. First-principles density functional theory (DFT) electronic structure calculations were also done. Crystal data: RbFe2F6, orthorhombic, space group Pnma (No. 62), a = 7.0177(6) {AA}, b = 7.4499(6) {AA}, c = 10.1765(8) {AA}, V = 532.04(8) {AA}3, Z = 4.

Two geometrically frustrated pyrochlore stannates, undergoing long range magnetic order below 1K, were investigated at very low temperature. Anomalies in the behaviour of hyperfine quantities are found, by 155Gd Mossbauer spectroscopy in Gd2Sn2O7 and
by low temperature specific heat measurements in Tb2Sn2O7. They are interpreted in terms of fluctuations of the correlated Gd or Tb spins, using a model two-level system (the nuclear spins) submitted to a randomly fluctuating (hyperfine) field.
The Kitaev model predicts that quantum spin liquids (QSLs) will form at low temperatures under certain special conditions, and materials hosting the QSL state are frequently sought. The layered honeycomb lattice material {alpha}-RuCl3 has emerged as
a prime candidate for displaying the Kitaev QSL state. Here we describe a new polymorph of RuI3 with a layered honeycomb lattice structure, synthesized at moderately high pressures and stable under ambient conditions. Preliminary characterization reveals metallic, paramagnetic behavior, the absence of long-range magnetic order down to 0.35 K and an unusually large T-linear contribution to the heat capacity at low temperatures. We propose that this RuI3 phase, with a layered honeycomb lattice and strong spin-orbit coupling, provides a new route for the characterization of quantum materials.
Li$_2$Sr[MnN]$_2$ single crystals were successfully grown out of Li rich flux. The crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and revealed almost linear $-$N$-$Mn$-$N$-$Mn$-$ chains as central structural motif. Tetragonal co
lumns of this air and moisture sensitive nitridomanganate were employed for electrical transport, heat capacity, and anisotropic magnetization measurements. Both the electronic and magnetic properties are most remarkable, in particular the linear increase of the magnetic susceptibility with temperature that is reminiscent of underdoped cuprate and Fe-based superconductors. Clear indications for antiferromagnetic ordering at $T_{rm N} = 290$ K were obtained. Metallic transport behavior is experimentally observed in accordance with electronic band structure calculations.
Pyrochlore lattices, which are found in two important classes of materials -- the $A_2B_2X_7$ pyrochlore family and the $AB_2X_4$ spinel family -- are the quintessential 3-dimensional frustrated lattice architecture. While historically oxides ($X =$~
O) have played the starring role in this field, the past decade has seen materials synthesis breakthroughs that have lead to the emergence of fluoride ($X =$~F) and chalcogenide ($X =$~S, Se) pyrochlore lattice materials. In this Research Update, we summarize recent progress in understanding the magnetically frustrated ground states in three families of non-oxide pyrochlore lattice materials: (i) $3d$-transition metal fluoride pyrochlores, (ii) rare earth chalcogenide spinels, and (iii) chromium chalcogenide spinels with a breathing pyrochlore lattice. We highlight how the change of anion can modify the single ion spin anisotropy due to crystal electric field effects, stabilize the incorporation of new magnetic elements, and dramatically alter the exchange pathways and thereby lead to new magnetic ground states. We also consider a range of future directions -- materials with the potential to define the next decade of research in frustrated magnetism.
Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$ is a layered van der Waals magnetic material with a relatively high ordering temperature and large anisotropy. While most studies have concluded the interlayer ordering to be ferromagnetic, there have also been reports of interlaye
r antiferromagnetism in Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$. Here, we investigate the interlayer magnetic ordering by neutron diffraction experiments, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spin-polarized STM measurements, density functional theory plus U calculations and STM simulations. We conclude that the layers of Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$ are coupled ferromagnetically and that in order to capture the magnetic and electronic properties of Fe$_{3-x}$GeTe$_2$ within density functional theory, Hubbard U corrections need to be taken into account.
