A new member of the Kagome metal family that overcomes long-standing geometric constraints has been discovered and studied by an international research team led by scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids (MPI CPfS). The results, published in Nature Materials, introduce the compound TbTi₃Bi₄ as a model system for designing next-generation quantum materials with highly tunable magnetic and electronic properties.
