Topological semimetals in three dimensions display band-touchings at points (Weyl or Dirac semimetals) or nodal lines in the Brillouin zone. Weyl semimetals can occur with internal symmetries only (time-reversal ${\cal T}$, charge…

In this paper, we study the topological properties of magnons on a dice lattice, also known as the dual of a more widely studied kagome lattice. This structure has a central atom at the center of the honeycomb lattice, which leads to the…

The marriage between a two-dimensional layered material (2DLM) and a complex transition metal oxide (TMO) results in a variety of physical and chemical phenomena that would not have been achieved in either material alone. Interesting recent…

Young and Kane have given a great insight for 2D Dirac semimetals with nontrivial topology in the presence of nonsymmorphic crystalline symmetry. Based on one of 2D nonsymmorphic square lattice structures they proposed, we further construct…

State-of-the-art theoretical studies anticipate a 2D Dirac system in the "heavy" analogues of graphene, free-standing buckled honeycomb-like Xenes (X = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, etc.). Herewith a structurally and electronically resembling 2D sheet,…

A two-dimensional (2D) topological semimetal is characterized by the nodal points in its low-energy band structure. While the linear nodal points have been extensively studied, especially in the context of graphene, the realm beyond linear…

We report density functional theory calculations for Mo$_3$S$_7$(dmit)$_3$. We derive an ab initio tight-binding model from overlaps of Wannier orbitals; finding a layered model with interlayer hopping terms $\sim3/4$ the size of the…

The search for artificial structure with tunable topological properties is an interesting research direction of today's topological physics. Here, we introduce a scheme to realize `topological semimetal states' with a three-dimensional…

Searching for three-dimensional(3D) semiconducting carbon allotropes with proper bandgaps and excellent optoelectronic properties is always the chasing goal for the new emerging all-carbon optoelectronics. On the other side, 3D carbon…

Since the advent of graphene, two-dimensional (2D) materials become very attractive and there is growing interest to explore new 2D beyond graphene. Here, through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we predict 2D wide-band-gap…

Graphene as a two-dimensional (2D) topological Dirac semimetal has attracted much attention for its outstanding properties and potential applications. However, three-dimensional (3D) topological semimetals for carbon materials are still…

Strong Coulomb repulsion is predicted to open a many-body charge gap at the Dirac point of graphene, transforming the semimetal into a Mott insulator. However, this correlated insulating phase has remained inaccessible in pristine graphene,…

Two-dimensional topological insulators (2D TIs) have been proposed as platforms for many intriguing applications, ranging from spintronics to topological quantum information processing. Realizing this potential will likely be facilitated by…

According to the mathematical classification of topological band structures, there exist a number of fascinating topological states in dimensions larger than three with exotic boundary phenomena and interesting topological responses. While…

We present a study of "nodal semimetal" phases, in which non-degenerate conduction and valence bands touch at points (the "Weyl semimetal") or lines (the "line node semimetal") in three-dimensional momentum space. We discuss a general…

In the last years, kagome materials received massive attention by virtue of being candidate hosts for a large variety of quantum phases: spin liquids, unconventional superconductivity, and topological phases of matter, to name the more…

Hexagonal Kagome lattice is a multiband system with a quadratic band crossing point, in contrast with honeycomb lattice with linear band crossing point, which has exotic correlated effect and can produce various novel quantum states. Here…

Dirac points in two-dimensional (2D) materials have been a fascinating subject of research, with graphene as the most prominent example. However, the Dirac points in existing 2D materials, including graphene, are vulnerable against…

Electrons hopping on the sites of a three-dimensional pyrochlore lattice are shown to form topologically non-trivial insulating phases when the spin-orbit (SO) coupling and lattice distortions are present. Of 16 possible topological classes…

The unique properties of topological semimetals have strongly driven efforts to seek for new topological phases and related materials. Here, we identify a critical condition for the existence of linked nodal rings (LNRs) in symmorphic…
