Kagome lattice provides a rich platform for exploring novel quantum states, emerging from the interplay between its frustrated corner-sharing triangular geometry and intriguing electronic structure. Co3Sn2S2 is a kagome lattice ferromagnet, exhibiting a unique interplay between its electronic wavefunction topology and magnetic spin configuration. This interaction results in several intriguing...
Shandite Co3Sn2S2 has been synthesized and studied extensively, but there is still a lack of consensus regarding the magnetic ground state. Since its discovery, it has been considered a ferromagnet with c-axis as its easy axis. However, recently, there has been reports of exchange bias based on magnetometry and anomalous Hall effect attributed to spin glass and presence of antiferromagnetism...
In a first part I will summarise results of an experimental study to unravel the magnetic ground state and interactions in Co$_3$Sn$_2$S$_2$, conducted with colleagues from PSI (Yona Soh) and the ILL (David Tam). By exploring the magnetic interactions to moderately high energies and using non-invasive probes to measure the magnetic ground state, we discover that the spin wave spectrum and...
