چکیده
As a new type of quantum state matter hosting low energy relativistic quasiparticles, Weyl semimetals (WSMs) have attracted significant attention for scientific community and potential device applications. In this study, we present comprehensive investigation the structural, magnetic, transport properties noncentrosymmetric R AlSi ( = Sm, Ce), which been predicted to be magnetic WSM candidates. Both samples exhibit nonsaturated magnetoresistance, with about 900% 80% SmAlSi CeAlSi, respectively, at temperature 1.8 K field 9 T. The carrier densities CeAlSi remarkable change around transition temperatures, signifying that electronic states are sensitive ordering rare-earth elements. At reveals prominent Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations associated nontrivial Berry phase. High-pressure experiments demonstrate order is robust survival under high pressure. Our results would yield valuable insights into physics potentials in applications next-generation spintronic devices Ce) family.

متن کاملWeyl semimetal in a topological insulator multilayer.
We propose a simple realization of the three-dimensional (3D) Weyl semimetal phase, utilizing a multilayer structure, composed of identical thin films of a magnetically doped 3D topological insulator, separated by ordinary-insulator spacer layers. We show that the phase diagram of this system contains a Weyl semimetal phase of the simplest possible kind, with only two Dirac nodes of opposite ch...
متن کاملWeyl–Kondo semimetal in heavy-fermion systems
Insulating states can be topologically nontrivial, a well-established notion that is exemplified by the quantum Hall effect and topological insulators. By contrast, topological metals have not been experimentally evidenced until recently. In systems with strong correlations, they have yet to be identified. Heavy-fermion semimetals are a prototype of strongly correlated systems and, given their ...
متن کاملChiral magnetoresistance in the Weyl semimetal NbP
NbP is a recently realized Weyl semimetal (WSM), hosting Weyl points through which conduction and valence bands cross linearly in the bulk and exotic Fermi arcs appear. The most intriguing transport phenomenon of a WSM is the chiral anomaly-induced negative magnetoresistance (NMR) in parallel electric and magnetic fields. In intrinsic NbP the Weyl points lie far from the Fermi energy, making ch...
