Smooth interfaces of topological systems are known to host massive surface states along with the topologically protected chiral one. We show that in Weyl semimetals these massive states, along with the chiral Fermi arc, strongly alter the…
As a half-metal is spin-polarized at its Fermi level by definition, it was conventionally thought to have little proximity effect to an s-wave superconductor. Here we show that, with interface spin-orbit coupling, $p_x +ip_y$…
One of the most striking signatures of Weyl fermions is their surface Fermi arcs. Less known is that Fermi arcs can also be localized at internal twin boundaries where two Weyl materials of opposite chirality meet. In this work, we derive…
