Description
This talk provides an overview about magnetic and spectroscopic properties of a new class of magnets, TM2Mo3O8, composed of decorated honeycomb layers of transition metal (TM) ions. Although in terms of chemical bonding these compounds are three dimensional, the magnetic interactions have a strongly two-dimensional character, making them similar to van-der-Waals magnets. The two-dimanesional nature of the interactions combined with frustration arising from competing anisotropies gives rise to various exotic states and dynamical phenomena.
