Two-dimensional (2D) Dirac-like electron gases have attracted tremendous research interest ever since the discovery of free-standing graphene. The linear energy dispersion and non-trivial Berry phase play the pivotal role in the remarkable…

Two-dimensional (2D) Dirac states with linear band dispersion have attracted enormous interest since the discovery of graphene. However, to date, 2D Dirac semimetals are still very rare due to the fact that 2D Dirac states are generally…

Two-dimensional Dirac semimetals have attracted much attention because of their linear energy dispersion and non-trivial Berry phase. Graphene-like 2D Dirac materials are gapless only within certain approximations, e.g., if spin-orbit…
