      <description>arXiv: The bond-dependent anisotropic Kitaev interactions are the key for the Kitaev model, which has attracted intense interest for its potential to host quantum-spin-liquid states and fractional excitations. However, experimental realizations of such interactions remain scarce. Here, we investigate the magnetic excitations…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The Kitaev honeycomb model has attracted significant interest due to its quantum spin liquid ground state, fractionalized Majorana excitations, and topological properties. Motivated by these features, we introduce a quasi-one-dimensional Kitaev-like spin chain derived from a truncated honeycomb geometry. The resulting…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The small-gap room-temperature semiconductor a-RuCl3, which is known to undergo a Mott-Hubbard transition at low temperatures, is one of the most promising candidates for realisation of an exotic matter form, the quantum spin liquid state, which may have applications in quantum computing. Although extensively…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Ruthenium trihalides RuX₃ (X = Cl, Br, I) provide a tunable platform for Kitaev magnetism in two-dimensional van der Waals materials. Despite their similar crystal structures and zigzag antiferromagnetic order, RuBr₃ exhibits a higher Néel temperature (TN) than RuCl₃, suggesting their distinct proximity to the Kitaev…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The layered transition metal trihalide α-RuCl₃ has been studied extensively in recent years as a promising candidate for a proximate Kitaev quantum spin liquid state. In high quality samples, a complete structural transition from room-temperature C2/m to low-temperature R3 is consistently observed, with a single…</description>
