We re-examine the question of quantum oscillations from surface Fermi arcs and chiral modes in Weyl semimetals. By introducing two tools - semiclassical phase-space quantization and a numerical implementation of a layered construction of…
The Weyl semimetal surface is modeled by applying the Bogolyubov boundary conditions, in which the quasiparticles have an infinite Dirac mass outside the semimetal. For a Weyl semimetal shaped as a slab of finite thickness, we derive an…
The surface states of Weyl semi-metals (SM's) consist of disjointed Fermi-arcs. This unusual surface-Fermiology provides a fingerprint of the topological features of the bulk Weyl-phase. Using a combination of semiclassical and numerical…
We consider the semiclassical quantization condition for the energy of an electron in a magnetic field in the case when the electron orbit lies on a Fermi-surface pocket surrounding the Weyl point of a topological semimetal and analyze the…
When magnetic field is applied to metals and semimetals quantum oscillations appear as individual Landau levels cross the Fermi level. Quantum oscillations generally do not occur in superconductors (SC) because magnetic field is either…
The Weyl semimetal NbP was found to exhibit topological Fermi arcs and exotic magneto-transport properties. Here, we report on magnetic quantum-oscillation measurements on NbP and construct the 3D Fermi surface with the help of…
Weyl semimetals host topologically protected surface states, with arced Fermi surface contours that are predicted to propagate through the bulk when their momentum matches that of the surface projections of the bulk's Weyl nodes. We use…
Weyl fermions in an external magnetic field exhibit the chiral anomaly, a non-conservation of chiral fermions. In a Weyl semimetal, a spatially inhomogeneous Weyl node separation causes similar effect by creating an intrinsic…
For a Weyl semimetal (WSM) in a magnetic field, a semiclassical description of the Fermi-arc surface state dynamics is usually employed for explaining various unconventional magnetotransport phenomena, e.g., Weyl orbits, the…
We show that a thin film of Weyl or Dirac semimetal with a strong in-plane magnetic field becomes a novel two-dimensional Fermi liquid with interesting properties. The Fermi surface in this system is strongly anisotropic, which originates…
Weyl semimetals harbor unusual surface states known as Fermi arcs, which are essentially disjoint segments of a two dimensional Fermi surface. We describe a prescription for obtaining Fermi arcs of arbitrary shape and connectivity by…
It is necessary to study the properties of Weyl semimetal nanostructures for potential applications in nanoelectronics. Here we study the Weyl semimetal quantum dot with a most simple model Hamiltonian with only two Weyl points. We focus on…
Fermi-arc surface states of Weyl semimetals exhibit a unique combination of localization to a surface and connectivity to the bulk Weyl fermions that can move along the localization direction. We predict anomalous quantum-oscillation…
Unconventional surface states protected by non-trivial bulk orders are sources of various exotic quantum transport in topological materials. One prominent example is the unique magnetic orbit, so-called Weyl orbit, in topological semimetals…
Weyl semimetals are a new class of Dirac material that posses bulk energy nodes in three dimensions. In this paper, we study a Weyl semimetal subject to an applied magnetic field. We derive expressions for the density of states, electronic…
The discovery of Weyl semimetals represents a significant advance in topological band theory. They paradigmatically enlarged the classification of topological materials to gapless systems while simultaneously providing experimental evidence…
The surface of a Weyl semimetal (WSM) displays Fermi arcs, i.e. disjoint segments of a two-dimensional Fermi contour. We present a quantum-mechanical non-local theory of chiral Fermi arc plasmons in WSMs with broken time-reversal symmetry.…
Fermi arc surface states, the manifestation of the bulk-edge correspondence in Weyl semimetals, have attracted much research interest. In contrast to the conventional Fermi loop, the disconnected Fermi arcs provide an exotic 2D system for…
Weyl semimetals are topological materials with protected Weyl nodes in the band structure. In these materials the surface states form open curves at the Fermi surface, Fermi arcs in Weyl semimetals and drumhead states of nodal-line…
We present a semiclassical explanation for the morphology of the surface Fermi arcs of Weyl semimetals. Viewing the surface states as a two-dimensional Fermi gas subject to band bending and Berry curvatures, we show that it is the…
