The impurity is inherently manifest in cuprate superconductors, as cation substitution or intercalation is necessary for the introduction of charge carriers, and its influence on the electronic state is at the heart of a great debate in…

By introducing a superconducting gap in Weyl- or Dirac semi-metals, the superconducting state inherits the non-trivial topology of their electronic structure. As a result, Weyl superconductors are expected to host exotic phenomena such as…

The pointlike impurity scattering is studied for a superconductor with different pairing symmetries based on a minimal two band model proposed by S. Raghu $et$ $al.$ [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 77}, R220503 (2008)], and the self-consistent…

Weyl and Dirac (semi)metals in three dimensions have robust gapless electronic band structures. Their massless single-body energy spectra are protected by symmetries such as lattice translation, (screw) rotation and time reversal. In this…

Topological insulators and topological semimetals are both new classes of quantum materials, which are characterized by surface states induced by the topology of the bulk band structure. Topological Dirac or Weyl semimetals show linear…

Periodically driven systems provide tunable platforms to realize interesting Floquet topological phases and phase transitions. In electronic systems with Weyl dispersions, the band crossings are topologically protected even in the presence…

We report systematic theoretical studies of the inverse Faraday effect in materials with massless Dirac fermions, both in two dimensions such as graphene and surface states in topological insulators, and in three dimensions such as Dirac…

Weyl semimetals are examples of a new class of topological states of matter which are gapless in the bulk with protected surface states. Their low energy sector is characterized by massless chiral fermions which are robust against…

The nodal and effectively relativistic dispersion featuring in a range of novel materials including two- dimensional graphene and three-dimensional Dirac and Weyl semimetals has attracted enormous interest during the past decade. Here, by…

Recently discovered Dirac semimetals (DSMs) with two Dirac nodes, such as Na$_{3}$Bi and Cd$_{2}$As$_{3}$, are regarded to carry the $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$ topological charge in addition to the chiral charge. Here, we study the Floquet phase…

We study three-dimensional Dirac fermions with weak finite-range scalar potential disorder. We show that even though disorder is perturbatively irrelevant at 3D Dirac points, nonperturbative effects from rare regions give rise to a nonzero…

Collective modes provide direct fingerprints of quantum matter. We predict a previously unidentified hybrid bulk electromagnetic mode in Weyl semimetals arising from the interplay between the chiral anomaly and the orientation of its…

Dirac materials have unique transport properties, partly due to the presence of surface states. A new type of Dirac materials, protected by non-symmorphic symmetries was recently proposed by Young and Kane [1]. By breaking of time reversal…

The disjointed Fermi-arcs in Weyl semimetals can intertwine with chiral bulk modes and participate in unusual closed magnetic orbits in the presence of a vertical magnetic field. Here we carry out the quantum oscillation study of such…

We study the local density of states around potential scatterers in d-wave superconductors, and show that quantum interference between impurity states is not negligible for experimentally relevant impurity concentrations. The two impurity…

Dirac and Weyl materials refer to a class of solid materials which host low-energy quasiparticle excitations that can be described by the Dirac and Weyl equations in relativistic quantum mechanics. Starting with the advent of graphene as…

Thermoelectric conductance of Dirac materials and in particular zero modes reveals the effect of topology .Weyl semimetals with a boundary at z = 0 give rise to chiral zero modes with- out backscattering resulting in a significant…

Recently, abundant transport phenomena characterizing the surface states of Weyl semimetals (WSMs) have been reported. To generate these phenomena, electrons have to complete a closed intersurface orbit. Due to the unavoidable impurities in…

Scatterings and transport in Weyl semimetals have caught growing attention in condensed matter physics, with observables including chiral zero modes and the associated magnetoresistance and chiral magnetic effects. Measurement of electrical…

We theoretically propose that Weyl semimetals may exhibit negative refraction at some frequencies close to the plasmon frequency, allowing transverse magnetic (TM) electromagnetic waves with frequencies smaller than the plasmon frequency to…
