Proposal for realization and detection of Kitaev quantum spin liquid with Rydberg atoms
The Kitaev chiral spin liquid has captured widespread interest in recent decades because of its intrinsic non-Abelian excitations, yet the experimental realization is challenging.Here we propose to realize and detect Kitaev chiral spin liquid in a deformed honeycomb array of Rydberg atoms.With a laser-assisted dipole-dipole interaction mechanism wh
