We report the electronic properties of single crystals of candidate nodal-line semimetal CaAgP. The transport properties of CaAgP are understood within the framework of a hole-doped nodal-line semimetal. In contrast, Pd-doped CaAgP shows a…
We report on the single crystal growth and transport properties of a topological semimetal CaAgBi which crystallises in the hexagonal $ABC-$type structure with the non-centrosymmetric space group $\mathit{P6_3mc}$ (No. 186). The transverse…
Topological semimetals are characterized by protected crossings between conduction and valence bands. These materials have recently attracted significant interest because of the deep connections to high-energy physics, the novel topological…
We investigate systematically the bulk and surface electronic structure of the candidate nodal-line semimetal CaAgAs by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional calculations. We observed a metallic, linear,…
Recently, PdTe has been identified as a Dirac semimetal with potential for unconventional superconductivity based on ARPES measurements. This study presents electrical transport and magnetization measurements conducted on high-quality…
The topological phases of matter provide the opportunity to observe many exotic properties, like the existence of two dimensional topological surface states in the form of Dirac cone in topological insulators, chiral transport through open…
One of key challenges in current material research is to search for new topological materials with inverted bulk-band structure. In topological insulators, the band inversion caused by strong spin-orbit coupling leads to opening of a band…
BaAgAs is a ternary Dirac semimetal which can be tuned across a number of topological orders. In this study we have investigated the bulk physical properties of BaAgAs using density functional theory based computations. Most of the results…
The optical conductivity of the new Dirac semimetal candidate Ir$_2$In$_8$Se is measured in a frequency range from 40 to 30000 cm$^{-1}$ at temperatures from 300 K down to 10 K. The measurement reveals that the compound is a low carrier…
Lorentz-violating type-II Dirac nodal line semimetals (DNLSs), hosting curves of band degeneracy formed by two dispersion branches with the same sign of slope, represent a novel states of matter. While being studied extensively in theory,…
Nodal semimetals, materials systems with nodal-point or -line Fermi surfaces, are much sought after for their novel transport and topological properties. Identification of experimental materials candidates, however, has mainly relied on…
A three-terminal spectroscopy that probes both subsurface energy barriers and interband optical transitions in a semiconductor heterostructure is demonstrated. A metal-base transistor with a unipolar p-type semiconductor collector embedding…
We report on a magneto-transport and quantum oscillations study on high quality single crystals of the transition metal di-tellurides PtTe$_2$ and PdTe$_2$. The de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations in the magnetization measurements on…
Nodal semimetals are a unique platform to explore topological signatures of the unusual band structure that can manifest by accumulating a nontrivial phase in quantum oscillations. Here we report a study of the de Haasvan Alphen…
Macroscopic concentration of massless charge carriers with linear conic spectrum - Dirac Fermions (DF) - was shown in 2004 to exist in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and governs its electronic properties. These carriers can have…
In the recent paper [1], a new method based on measuring a temperature correction to a quantum-oscillation frequency was proposed to study an energy-band dispersion of charge carriers in small Fermi surface (FS) pockets of crystals. To…
Results are reported for single crystal specimens of Hf$_2$Te$_2$P and compared to its structural analogue Zr$_2$Te$_2$P, which was recently proposed to be a potential reservoir for Dirac physics.[1] Both materials are produced using the…
Utilizing three-terminal tunnel emission of ballistic electrons and holes, we have developed a method to self-consistently measure the bandgap of semiconductors and band discontinuities at semiconductor heterojunctions without any…
We grew needle-shaped single crystals of GdAgGe, which crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric hexagonal crystal structure with space group P$\overline{6}$2$m$ (189). The magnetic susceptibility data for $H \perp c$ reveal two pronounced…
LaAgSb$_{2}$ is a Dirac semimetal showing charge density wave (CDW) order. Previous ARPES results suggest the existence of the Dirac-cone-like structure in the vicinity of the Fermi level along the $\Gamma$-M direction [X. Shi et al., Phys.…
