Abstract
Quantum magnetism studies the behaviour of magnetic materials where quantum fluctuations destroy the properties of conventional magnets such as long-range magnetic order and give rise to exotic behaviours. It is possible to make model materials engineered to exhibit specific quantum properties which can then be studied experimentally. The experimental technique of neutron scattering provides deep insights into the properties of materials and allows quantitative comparison to theory as will be illustrated by specific examples ranging from spin chains to frustrated magnets and spin liquids.
