Two-dimensional Spin Ice and the Sixteen-Vertex Model
In this thesis we present a thorough study of the static and dynamic properties of the 2D sixteen-vertex model or, in other words, a simplified version of the dipolar... -
Classical and quantum two-dimensional ice : Coulomb and ordered phases
Frustration – namely the presence of competing interactions – gives rise to highly complex effects in physics. Ice – be it the well known water ice or its magnetic...
