The spin−1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain is ideal for realizing one of the simplest gapless quantum spin liquids (QSLs), supporting a many-body ground state whose elementary excitations are fractional fermionic excitations called spinons. Here we report the discovery of such a one-dimensional (1D) QSL in Cs4CuSb2Cl12. Compared to previously reported S=1/2 1D chains, this material possesses a wider temperature range over which the QSL state is stabilized. We identify spinon excitations extending at T>0.8K, with a large T-linear contribution to the specific heat, γ=31.5(2)mJmol−1K−2, which contribute itinerantly to thermal transport up to temperatures as high as T=35K. At T=0.7K, we find a second-order phase transition that is unchanged by a μ0H=5T magnetic field. Cs4CuSb2Cl12 reveals new phenomenology deep in the 1D QSL regime, supporting a gapped QSL phase over a wide temperature range compared to many other experimental realizations.
