Particularly, Dirac spinons are expected to show special attributes comparable to Dirac particles in high-energy physics and Dirac electrons in graphene and quantum moiré products, such as a direct dispersion relation in between energy and momentum.”To find Dirac spinons in quantum magnets has been the dream of generations of condensed matter physicists; now that we have seen the evidence of them, one can start to think about the many prospective applications of such highly knotted quantum product.

Examining the spectral signals emerging from spinons complying with the Dirac formula would supply a wider understanding of the quantum spin liquid state of matter.
