Adding superconducting (SC) electron pairing via the proximity effect to pristinely non-superconducting materials can lead to a variety of interesting physical phenomena. Particular interest has recently focused on inducing SC into…

Magnetic Weyl semimetals (WSM) have recently attracted much attention due to their potential in realizing strong anomalous Hall effects. Yet, how to design such systems remains unclear. Based on first-principles calculations, we show here…

In topological materials, Dirac fermions can split into two Weyl fermions with opposite chiralities due to the breaking of space inversion symmetry, while in non-centrosymmetric superconductors, novel superconducting electron pairing…

We present a new switching mechanism that utilizes the proximity coupling between the surface spin texture of a Weyl semimetal and a superconductor, in a Weyl semimetal/superconductor/Weyl semimetal trilayer heterostructure. We show that…

We consider the proximity effect in a Topological Insulator sandwiched between two conventional superconductors, by comparing s-wave spin singlet superconducting pairing correlations and odd-parity triplet pairing correlations with zero…

The interplay between electronic correlations and topological protection may offer a rich avenue for discovering emergent quantum phenomena in condensed matter. However, electronic correlations have so far been little investigated in Weyl…

Heavy fermion semimetals represent a promising setting to explore topological metals driven by strong correlations. In this paper, we i) summarize the theoretical results in a Weyl-Kondo semimetal phase for a strongly correlated model with…

We theoretically investigate the Aharonov-Bohm effect in a thick-walled Weyl semimetal (WSM) cylinder subject to an external axial magnetic field. By employing a low-energy effective Hamiltonian, we analytically solve the eigenvalue problem…

We study the effects of strong $1/r$ long-range Coulomb interactions in a Weyl semimetal. We consider a three-dimensional (3D) Dirac fermion system on a lattice with a time-reversal symmetry breaking term, and take into account $1/r$…

The spin-orbit coupling (SOC) lifts the band degeneracy that plays a vital role in the search for different topological states, such as topological insulators (TIs) and topological semimetals (TSMs). In TSMs, the SOC can partially gap a…

Weyl semimetals are a new paradigmatic topological phase of matter featuring a gapless spectrum. One of its most distinctive features is the presence of Fermi arc surface states. Here, we report on atomistic simulations of the dc…

The proximity effect between a superconductor and a highly diffusive two-dimensional metal was revealed in a Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy experiment. The in-situ elaborated samples consisted of superconducting single crystalline Pb…

Recently, Wang $et$ $al.$ have reported the observation of "unconventional superconductivity" in the Weyl semimetal TaAs [arXiv:1607.00513]. The authors have written "\textit{A conductance plateau and sharp double dips are observed in the…

We describe the superconducting proximity effect taking place in a contact between a noncentrosymmetric superconductor and a diffusive normal/ferromagnetic metal within the quasiclassical theory of superconductivity. By solving numerically…

We study superconducting states of doped inversion-symmetric Weyl semimetals. Specifically, we consider a lattice model realizing a Weyl semimetal with an inversion symmetry and study the superconducting instability in the presence of a…

We develop a theory for the nonlinear time domain response of a Weyl semimetal driven by an ultrafast optical pulse. At quadratic order in the driving field we find that the response near a band inversion transition contains a coherent…

Weyl points are the simplest topologically-protected degeneracy in a three-dimensional dispersion relation. The realization of Weyl semimetals in photonic crystals has allowed these singularities and their consequences to be explored with…

Weyl semimetals, featuring massless linearly dispersing chiral fermions in three dimensions, provide an excellent platform for studying the interplay of electronic interactions and topology, and exploring new correlated states of matter.…

We report magnetotransport evidence of a hybridized Weyl semimetal (WSM) Fermi arc/topological insulator (TI) surface state at the interface of a ferromagnetic Mn$_{3+x}$Sn$_{1-x}$/Bi$_{0.85}$Sb$_{0.15}$ heterostructure. High target…

There have recently been several experiments studying induced superconductivity in semiconducting two-dimensional electron gases that are strongly coupled to thin superconducting layers, as well as probing possible topological phases…
