Kagome fiber

Kagome fiber is a hollow-core optical fiber whose cladding of glass struts forms a kagome lattice; it guides light by inhibited coupling, first reported in 2002.

The kagome lattice (籠目) is a two-dimensional lattice of interwoven equilateral triangles with hexagonal voids, known in condensed matter physics for flat bands, geometric frustration, and topological electronic states.

Kagome metal charge order

Kagome metal charge order is the spontaneous periodic modulation of electron density in kagome metals like AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, Cs), emerging near 80 to 100 K alongside superconductivity.

Kagome metals

Kagome metals are metals built on the kagome lattice of corner-sharing triangles, whose flat bands and van Hove singularities host superconductivity, charge density waves, and topological phases, most studied in the AV3Sb5 family.

Kagome superconductivity in AV3Sb5

Kagome superconductivity in AV3Sb5 is the superconductivity below about 2.5 K of the layered kagome metals AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, Cs), discovered through CsV3Sb5 in 2020.

Kagome superconductor

A kagome superconductor is a superconducting material whose atoms form a kagome lattice of corner-sharing triangles, producing flat electronic bands. The leading family, AV3Sb5, was discovered from 2020.
