Neutron Scattering Studies of Tm-Based Breathing Pyrochlore System

Breathing Pyrochlore materials have emerged as a promising candidate to study frustrated
magnetism and topological phenomena, such as Weyl and Dirac magnons. We have initiated
design and synthesis of rare-earth based family of Breathing Pyrochlore compounds. Further,
we have been using magnetometry, heat capacity, neutron diffraction and inelastic neutron
scattering techniques to probe the static and dynamic properties of these compounds. In this
talk, we are going to present our latest experimental results for the Tm-based breathing
pyrochlore compound Ba3Tm2Zn5O11.
