Novel topological state of matter is one of the rapidly growing fields in condensed matter physics research in recent times. While these materials are fascinating from the aspect of fundamental physics of relativistic particles, their…
We perform \textit{ab initio} investigations of the bulk and surface band structures of LaSb and LaBi and resolve the existing disagreements about the topological property of LaSb, considering LaBi as a reference. We examine the bulk band…
We use our high resolution He-lamp based, tunable laser-based ARPES measurements and density functional theory calculations to study the electronic properties of LaBi, a binary system that was proposed to be a member of a new family of…
Topological insulators are characterized by an inverted band structure in the bulk and metallic surface states on the surface. In LaBi, a semimetal with a band inversion equivalent to a topological insulator, we observe surface state like…
In a Dirac nodal line semimetal, the bulk conduction and valence bands touch at extended lines in the Brillouin zone. To date, most of the theoretically predicted and experimentally discovered nodal lines derive from the bulk bands of two-…
In rare-earth monopnictides like NdBi, the interplay between magnetism and topology results in an extremely unusual topological semimetal phase which simultaneously hosts Weyl points with Fermi arcs as well as massive and massless Dirac…
By means of first-principles and \emph{ab initio} tight-binding calculations, we found that the compound of NaBi is a three-dimensional non-trivial topological metal. Its topological feature can be confirmed by the presence of band…
