Quantum spin liquid and cluster Mott insulator phases in the Mo3O8 magnets

Abstract We unveil the microscopic origin of largely debated magnetism in the Mo3O8 quantum systems. Upon considering an extended Hubbard model at 1/6 filling on the anisotropic kagomé lattice formed by the Mo atoms, we argue that its ground state is determined by the competition between kinetic ene...
