The quasi-one-dimensional chiral charge density wave (CDW) material (TaSe$_4$)$_2$I has been recently predicted to host Kramers-Weyl (KW) fermions which should exist in the vicinity of high symmetry points in the Brillouin zone in chiral…

Chiral crystals are materials whose lattice structure has a well-defined handedness due to the lack of inversion, mirror, or other roto-inversion symmetries. These crystals represent a broad, important class of quantum materials; their…

Weyl fermions possess the property of spin-momentum locking: the expectation value of the spin is parallel or antiparallel to the momentum at any given point in the Brillouin zone in the vicinity of a Weyl node. This is a direct consequence…
