1 Quantum kagome spin liquids Philippe Mendels - Univ Paris-Sud Orsa The discovery of Herbertsmithite, ZnCu 3 (OH) 6 Cl 2, which features a perfect kagome geometry, has been coined as the "end to the drought of spin liquids" [1,2]. It has triggered an intense activity on new kagome materials and related theories for the ground state of the quantum kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet which has eluded any definitive conclusion for the last twenty years. This is indeed the first experimental example of a kagome lattice where no order has been found at any temperature well below J through all experimental techniques, among which µsr [3] has been by far the most accurate. This illustrates the power of the association of an enhancement of quantum fluctuations for S=1/2 spins with the frustration of antiferromagnetic interactions on the loosely connected kagome lattice to stabilize novel ground states of magnetic matter, namely quantum spin liquids. I will review and discuss our contribution to this field through µsr, in connection with our NMR work. Through the various Cu 2+ S=1/2 materials which we have studied, I ll illustrate some of the research thrusts in tracking down quantum spin liquid physics. This will encompass Zn and Mg-paratacamites, (Zn,Mg) x Cu 4-x (OH) 6 Cl 2 [), their polymorphs kapellasite [4] and haydeite, vesignieite [5] as well as the recently discovered triangular-based lattice Ba 3 CuSb 2 O 9 [6] compound.
