Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Optical anisotropy of the kagome magnet FeSn: Dominant role of excitations between kagome and Sn layers

arXiv:2404.12111v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Antiferromagnetic FeSn is considered to be a close realization of the ideal two-dimensional (2D) kagome lattice, hosting Dirac cones, van Hove singularities, and flat bands, as it comprises Fe$_3$Sn kagome layers well separated by Sn buffer layers. We observe a pronounced optical anisotropy, with the low-energy optical conductivity being surprisingly higher perpendicular to the kagome planes than along the layers. This finding contradicts the prevalent picture of dominantly 2D electronic structure for FeSn. Our material-specific theory reproduces the measured conductivity spectra remarkarbly well. A site-specific decomposition of the optical response to individual excitation channels shows that the optical conductivity for polarizations both parallel and perpendicular to the kagome plane is dominated by interlayer transitions between kagome layers and adjacent Sn-based layers. Moreover, the matrix elements corresponding to these transitions are highly anisotropic, leading to larger out-of-plane conductivity. Our results evidence the crucial role of interstitial layers in charge dynamics even in seemingly 2D systems.
