We study the effects of quenched bond disorder in frustrated easy-plane antiferromagnets in two space dimensions, using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. We consider local-moment systems which display noncollinear long-range order at zero temperature, with the antiferromagnetic triangular-lattice $XY$ model as a prime example. We show that (i) weak bond disorder transforms the clean ground state into a state with quasi-long-range order, and (ii) strong bond disorder results…

The stability of the Dirac spin liquid on two-dimensional lattices has long been debated. It was recently demonstrated [Nat. Commun. 10, 4254 (2019) and Phys. Rev. B 93, 144411 (2016)] that the
