In this paper, we numerically study the magnetic transport properties of disordered Weyl semimetals (WSM) in the ultra-quantum limit. We find a positive magnetic conductivity for the long-range disorder, although the system tends to have…

Non-Fermi-liquid charge transport in the vicinity of electronic instabilities has been intensely studied for decades. Deviations from $\rho_{\rm FL}=\rho_0+AT^2$ in bad and strange metals are commonly ascribed to a breakdown of Landau's…

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…

Atomic disorder is a common limiting factor for the low-temperature mobility in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs; MX2). Here, we study the effect of often occurring atomic vacancies on carrier scattering and transport in p-…

We report results of a Monte Carlo study of doped, diluted magnetic semiconductors in the low carrier density (insulating) regime. We find that the system undergoes a transition from a paramagnet at high temperatures to a ferromagnet at low…

A universal mechanism for strong magnetic-field effects of nonmagnetic organic semiconductors is presented. A weak magnetic field (less than hundreds mT) can substantially change the charge carrier hopping coefficient between two…

Topological semimetals are three-dimensional topological states of matter, in which the conduction and valence bands touch at a finite number of points, i.e., the Weyl nodes. Topological semimetals host paired monopoles and antimonopoles of…

We compute the quantum correction due to weak localization for transport properties of disordered quasi-one-dimensional conductors, by integrating the Dorokhov-Mello-Pereyra-Kumar equation for the distribution of the transmission…

The mesoscopic fluctuations of the absorption at optical transitions from a low energy regular state to high energy chaotic states in an aggregate of semiconductor quantum dots is studied. We provide a universal dependence of the…

We establish the dominant effect of anisotropic weak localization (WL) in three dimensions associated with a propagative Fermi surface, on the conductivity correction in heavily nitrogen doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) films based…

Bad-Metal (BM) behavior featuring linear temperature dependence of the resistivity extending to well above the Mott-Ioffe-Regel (MIR) limit is often viewed as one of the key unresolved signatures of strong correlation. Here we associate the…

Single crystal ZnO nanowires doped with indium are synthesized via the laser-assisted chemical vapor deposition method. The conductivity of the nanowires is measured at low temperatures in magnetic fields both perpendicular and parallel to…

Weyl semimetals are topological materials that provide a condensed-matter realization of the chiral anomaly. A positive longitudinal magnetoconductance quadratic in magnetic field has been promoted as a diagnostic for this anomaly. By…

Constructing an effective field theory in terms of doped magnetic impurities (described by an O(3) vector model with a random mass term), itinerant electrons of spin-orbit coupled semiconductors (given by a Dirac theory with a relatively…

The magnetoresistance (MR) of a material is typically insensitive to reversing the applied field direction and varies quadratically with magnetic field in the low-field limit. Quantum effects [1], unusual topological band structures [2],…

The metal-insulator transition and unconventional metallic transport in vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$) are investigated with a combination of spectroscopic ellipsometry and reflectance measurements. The data indicates that electronic…

We study the Coulomb blockade in a chaotic quantum dot connected to a lead by a single channel at nearly perfect transmission. We take into account quantum fluctuations of the dot charge and a finite level spacing for electron states within…

As conductors in electronic applications shrink, microscopic conduction processes lead to strong deviations from Ohm's law. Depending on the length scales of momentum conserving ($l_{MC}$) and relaxing ($l_{MR}$) electron scattering, and…

The theory of orbital magnetism in disordered metals is reviewed, and extended to include a broad range of temperatures and fields. Sample-to-sample fluctuations in the orbital magnetic susceptibility are studied. In a given sample these…

We review our recent works on the quantum transport, mainly in topological semimetals and also in topological insulators, organized according to the strength of the magnetic field. At weak magnetic fields, we explain the negative…
