| contents | The interplay of crystal electric field, temperature, and spin-orbit coupling can yield a Kramers ion and thus an effective S = 1/2 ground state for Co2+ ions (3d7), which is often the case for low dimensional materials. This is because a highly anisotropic structural motif can force the spins to point either up or down, hence becoming a system where spins communicate via Ising interactions. Cobalt-based quasi-1-dimensional materials have been studied in this context since the latter half of the 20th century, but due to the development of modern characterization techniques and advances in sample preparation, the exotic physical phenomena that have generated the most interest have only emerged in the most recent three to four decades. This topical review mainly summarizes progress in cobalt-based quasi-1-dimensional quantum magnets, and comments on a few research directions of potential future interest. |
