Quantum criticality in an organic spin-liquid insulator κ-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu2(CN)3

A quantum spin-liquid state, an exotic state of matter, appears when strong quantum fluctuations enhanced by competing exchange interactions suppress a magnetically ordered state. Generally, when an ordered state is continuously suppressed to 0 K by an external parameter, a quantum phase transition...
