Signatures of quantum spin liquid state and unconventional transport in thin film TbInO₃.

ABSTRACT: Quantum spin liquids, where the frustrated magnetic ground state hosts highly entangled spins resisting long-range order to 0 K, are exotic quantum magnets proximate to unconventional superconductivity and candidate platforms for topological quantum computing. Although several quantum spin liquid material candidates have been identified, thin films crucial for device fabrication and further tuning of properties remain elusive. Recently, hexagonal TbInO₃ has emerged as a quantum spin liquid candidate which also hosts improper ferroelectricity and exotic high-temperature carrier transport. Here, we synthesize thin films of TbInO₃ and characterize their magnetic and electronic properties. Our films present a highly frustrated magnetic ground state without long-range orde
