Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) represent an exotic state of matter where quantum spins interact strongly yet avoid forming long-range magnetic order down to absolute zero temperature. QSLs exhibit nonlocal quantum entanglement, giving rise to fractionalized quasiparticle excitations with novel emergent properties. This talk will explore the rich phenomenology of QSL phases, with a particular focus on the Kitaev and kagome materials which have garnered significant recent interest.
