Pressure-dependent magnetism of the Kitaev candidate Li2RhO3 by Bin Shen, Efrain Insuasti Pazmino, Ramesh Dhakal, Friedrich Freund, Philipp Gegenwart, Stephen M. Winter, Alexander A. Tsirlin

“…On the other hand, spin freezing persists up to at least 3.46 GPa with the almost constant freezing temperature of 5 K that does not follow the large changes in the exchange couplings and indicates the likely extrinsic origin of spin freezing. Magnetic frustration in Li2RhO3 is mainly related to the interplay between ferromagnetic K 1 and antiferromagnetic Γ1, along with the weakness of the third-neighbor coupling J 3 that would otherwise stabilize zigzag order. …”
