We study the effect of illumination of bicircularly polarized light (BCL) on topological semimetals, namely multifold fermion and line-node semimetals. We demonstrate, by means of both low-energy and lattice models, that the band-structures…
Semimetals, in which conduction and valence bands touch but do not form Fermi surfaces, have attracted considerable interest for their anomalous properties starting with the discovery of Dirac matter in graphene and other two-dimensional…
We study the collective charge-density modes (plasmons) of two-dimensional nonsymmorphic Dirac semimetals, within the random-phase approximation (RPA) in presence of Coulomb interaction. Without loss of generality, we consider a system in a…
Dirac semimetals have attracted a great deal of current interest due to their potential applications in topological quantum computing, low-energy electronic applications, and single photon detection in the microwave frequency range. Herein…
Semi-Dirac semimetals have received enthusiastic research both theoretically and experimentally in the recent years. Due to the anisotropic dispersion, its physical properties are highly direction-dependent. In this work we employ the…
We perform a theoretical and numerical study of the optical properties of both direct and inverse three-dimensional (3D) chiral woodpile structures, and a corresponding chiral Bragg stack. We compute transmission spectra in the helical…
To obtain the total response of the system, the effect of disorder cannot be neglected, as it introduces a new contribution (i.e. extrinsic) in the total response of the system. In the study of dynamical (AC) effects, the interband response…
Three dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetals are 3D analogue of graphene, which display Dirac points with linear dispersion in k-space, stabilized by crystal symmetry. Cd3As2 and Na3Bi were predicted to be 3D Dirac semimetals and were…
Altermagnets provide a natural platform for studying and exploiting piezomagnetism. In this paper, we introduce a class of insulating altermagnets in two dimensions (2D) referred to as Dirac quadrupole altermagnets, and show based on…
The motion of a relativistic particle is linked to its spin by the Dirac equation. Remarkably, electrons in two-dimensional materials can mimic such Dirac particles but must always appear in pairs of opposite spin chirality. Using…
We show that hybrid Dirac and Weyl semimetals can be realized in a three-dimensional Luttinger semimetal with quadratic band touching (QBT). We illustrate this using periodic kicking scheme. In particular, we focus on a momentum-dependent…
We demonstrate how to control the spectra and current flow of Dirac electrons in both a graphene sheet and a topological insulator by applying either two linearly polarized laser fields with frequencies $\omega$ and $2\omega$ or a…
Interactions have strong effects in systems with flat bands. We examine the role of Coulomb interactions in two dimensional chiral anisotropic quasiparticles that disperse linearly in one direction and have relatively flat bands near the…
We demonstrate theoretically the coexistence of Dirac semimetal and topological insulator phases in InSb/$\alpha$-Sn conventional semiconductor superlattices, based on advanced first-principles calculations combined with low-energy $k\cdot…
Based on first-principles calculations and symmetry analysis, we propose that a transition metal rutile oxide, in particular $\beta'$-PtO$_2$, can host a three-dimensional topological Dirac semimetal phase. We find that $\beta'$-PtO$_2$…
The phase transition between type-I and type-II Dirac semimetals will reveal a series of significant physical properties because of their completely distinct electronic, optical and magnetic properties. However, no mechanism and materials…
We consider the three-dimensional Hamiltonian for Bi$_2$Se$_3$, a second-generation topological insulator, under the effect of a periodic drive for both in-plane and out-of-plane fields. As it will be shown by means of high-frequency…
Two-dimensional Dirac materials with a flat band have been demonstrated to possess a plethora of unusual electronic properties, but the optical properties of these materials are less studied. Utilizing $\alpha$-$\mathcal{T}_3$ lattice as a…
Two-dimensional semi-Dirac models describe a family of novel materials that have anisotropic dispersion with relativistic-type spectrum along one of the spatial directions and non-relativistic along another. In the present paper we perform…
We demonstrate that, apart from the chiral anomaly, Dirac semimetals possess another quantum anomaly, which we call the mirror anomaly, and which manifests in a singular response of the Dirac semimetal to an applied magnetic field. Namely,…
