Room-temperature magnetic topological Weyl fermion and nodal line semimetal states in half-metallic Heusler Co2TiX (X=Si, Ge, or Sn)
Topological semimetals (TSMs) including Weyl semimetals and nodal-line semimetals are expected to open the next frontier of condensed matter and materials science. Although the first inversion breaking Weyl semimetal was recently discovered in TaAs, its magnetic counterparts, i.e., the time-reversal breaking Weyl and nodal line semimetals, remain elusive. They are predicted to exhibit exotic pr...
متن کاملTopological nodal-line fermions in spin-orbit metal PbTaSe2
Topological semimetals can support one-dimensional Fermi lines or zero-dimensional Weyl points in momentum space, where the valence and conduction bands touch. While the degeneracy points in Weyl semimetals are robust against any perturbation that preserves translational symmetry, nodal lines require protection by additional crystalline symmetries such as mirror reflection. Here we report, base...
متن کاملEmergence of topological nodal loops in alkaline-earth hexaborides XB6 (X = Ca, Sr, and Ba) under pressure.
Based on first-principles calculations, we report that external pressure can induce a topological phase transition in alkaline-earth hexaborides, XB6 (X = Ca, Sr, and Ba). It was revealed that XB6 are transformed from trivial semiconductors to topological node-line semimetals under moderate pressure when the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is ignored. The band inversion between the B p-orbitals at th...
متن کاملEmergent Relativistic Effects in Condensed Matter - From Fundamental Aspects to Electronic Functionality
Recently a great deal of attention has been focused on condensed matter systems which have zero-gap electronic structures analogous to the massless relativistic particles. The Weyl semimetal, which is recently discovered, has a peculiar band structure characterized by the nodal touching points (Weyl nodes) and the topological surface bands connecting the Weyl nodes. In this talk, I introduce ou...
متن کاملTopological spinon semimetals and gapless boundary states in three dimensions.
Recently, there has been much effort in understanding topological phases of matter with gapless bulk excitations, which are characterized by topological invariants and protected intrinsic boundary states. Here we show that topological semimetals of Majorana fermions arise in exactly solvable Kitaev spin models on a series of three-dimensional lattices. The ground states of these models are quan...
