We study the photoresponse of two-dimensional semi-Dirac semimetals and three-dimensional Dirac semimetals to off-resonant circularly polarized light. For two-dimensional semi-Dirac semimetals we find that incident light does not open a gap…
ZrSiS exhibits a frequency-independent interband conductivity $\sigma(\omega) = \rm{const}(\omega) \equiv \sigma_{\rm{flat}}$ in a broad range from 250 to 2500 cm$^{-1}$ (30 - 300 meV). This makes ZrSiS similar to (quasi)two-dimensional…

It is predicted that electrons on the surface of a topological insulator can acquire a mass (massive Dirac fermion) by opening up a gap at the Dirac point when time-reversal symmetry is broken via the out-of-plane magnetization. We report…
