Description:
Author(s): Yejin Huh, Matthias Punk, and Subir Sachdev We consider Z 2 spin liquids on the kagome lattice on the verge of a valence bond solid (VBS) transition, where vortex excitations carrying Z 2 magnetic flux—so-called visons—condense. We show that these vison excitations can couple directly to the external electromagnetic field, even though they carr... [Phys. Rev. B 87, 235108] Published Mon Jun 10, 2013
