Research Abstract |
In order to understand the origin of spin ice correlations and quantum fluctuations of Pr magnetic moments in magnetic pyrochlore oxides Pr_2(Ir, Sn)_2O_7, the superexchange interaction between Pr moments has been derived microscopically. Then, I have shown that this theoretical model can host a state characterized by a quantum melting of spin ice and have explained the anomalous Hall conductivity in the chiral spin liquid phase. Generalizing this theoretical framework, neutron-scattering experiments on Pr & _2Sn_2O_7 and Yb & _2Ti_2O_7 have been explained successfully.
