An outstanding question concerning the underdoped cuprate concerns the true nature of their Fermi surface which appears as a set of disconnected arcs. Theoretical models have proposed two distinct possibilities: (1) each arc is the…
In topological Weyl semimetals, the low energy excitations are comprised of linearly dispersing Weyl fermions, which act as monopoles of Berry curvature in momentum space and result in topologically protected Fermi arcs on the surfaces. We…
