Abstract

Topological quantum materials with kagome lattice have become the emerging frontier in the context of condensedmatter physics. Kagome lattice harbors strongmagnetic frustration and topological electronic states generatedby the unique geometric configuration.Kagomelattice has the peculiar advantages in the aspectsofmagnetism, topology aswell as strong correlationwhenthe spin, charge,ororbit degreesof free is introduced, and providing a promising platform for investigating the entangled interactionsamongthem. In this paper, we will systematically introduce the research progress on the kagome topological materials and give a perspective in the framework of the potential future development directions in this field.
