The type-II terminated 1T-TaS$_2$ surface of a three-dimensional 1T-TaS$_2$ bulk material realizes the effective spin-1/2 degree of freedom on each David-star cluster with ${T^2=-1}$ such that the time reversal symmetry is realized anomalously, despite the bulk three-dimensional 1T-TaS$_2$ material has an even number of electrons per unit cell with ${T^2=+1}$. This surface is effectively viewed as a spin-1/2 triangular lattice magnet, except with a symmetry-protected topological bulk. We further propose this surface termination realizes a spinon Fermi surface spin liquid with the surface fractionalization but with a non-exotic three-dimensional bulk. We analyze possible experimental consequences of the type-II terminated surface spin liquid.
The quantum mechanical screening of a spin via conduction electrons depends sensitively on the environment seen by the magnetic impurity. A high degree of responsiveness can be obtained with metal complexes, as the embedding of a metal ion into an or
A quantum spin liquid (QSL) is an exotic state of matter characterized by quantum entanglement and the absence of any broken symmetry. A long-standing open problem, which is a key for fundamental understanding the mysterious QSL states, is how the qu
To reveal the nature of elementary excitations in a quantum spin liquid (QSL), we measured low temperature thermal conductivity and specific heat of 1T-TaS$_2$, a QSL candidate material with frustrated triangular lattice of spin-1/2. The nonzero temp
We study the electronic structure of the Pd-terminated surface of the non-magnetic delafossite oxide metal PdCoO$_2$. Combining angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density-functional theory, we show how an electronic reconstruction driven b
Understanding collective electronic states such as superconductivity and charge density waves is pivotal for fundamental science and applications. The layered transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TiSe2 hosts a unique charge density wave (CDW) phase tra
