Twist-induced magnetic topological phase transition in stacked altermagnetic CrO

Interlayer twisting offers a geometric route to controlling electronic states, but whether it can simultaneously reconstruct magnetic symmetry and band topology remains unclear. Here, based on symmetry analysis and first-principles calculations, we show that commensurate twisting drives magnetic topological phase transitions in stacked bilayer CrO. In particular, it transforms an antiferromagnetic Dirac semimetal into either a $d$-wave altermagnetic bipolarized Weyl semimetal or an unconventional compensated magnetic Weyl semimetal. A key result is that the Weyl points in the $d$-wave altermagnetic phase lie at generic $k$ points in the Brillouin zone and are protected by the spin symmetry $\left\{ C_2 T||C_{2z} T\right\}$. This sharply contrasts with conventional two-dimensional Weyl semimetals, where Weyl points are typically protected by mirror or rotational symmetries and thus pinned to high-symmetry lines. We further show that commensurate twisting preserves the spin symmetry $\left\{ C_2 T||C_{2z} T\right\}$, making the Weyl phase a robust consequence of twisting rather than a fine-tuned feature of a specific angle. Our work establishes a symmetry-based route to engineering magnetic topological phases in twisted two-dimensional materials.
