The topological Weyl semimetals with peculiar band structure exhibit novel nonlinear optical enhancement phenomena even for light at optical wavelengths. While many intriguing nonlinear optical effects were constantly uncovered in type-I…

The interplay among topology and interactions has been a promising path towards identifying novel phases of condensed matter beyond these predicted by the established classification paradigms. In the present work, we propose such a novel…

On traversing materials with absorbing dyes, weak optical beams develop a Beer (exponential) profile, while intense beams develop a spatially initially linear and then finally an exponential profile. This anomalous, deep penetration due to…

It was recently found that Coulomb interaction can induce a series of nontrivial spectral and transport properties in a two-dimensional anisotropic Weyl semimetal. Different from graphehe that is basically an ordinary Fermi liquid, the…

We develop a theory for the nonlinear time domain response of a Weyl semimetal driven by an ultrafast optical pulse. At quadratic order in the driving field we find that the response near a band inversion transition contains a coherent…

The Berry curvature dipole is well-known to cause Hall conductivity. This study expands on previous results to demonstrate how two- and three-dimensional materials react under a tilted magnetic field in the linear and nonlinear regimes. We…

Weyl semi-metals are three dimensional generalizations of graphene with point-like Fermi surfaces. Their linear electronic dispersion leads to a window in the particle-hole excitation spectrum which allows for undamped propagation of…

The appearance of a Hall conductance necessarily requires breaking of time-reversal symmetry, either by an external magnetic field or by the internal magnetization of a material. However, as a second response, Hall dissipationless…

The topological nature of the band structure of a Weyl semimetal leads to a number of unique transport and optical properties. For example, the description of the propagation of an electromagnetic wave in a Weyl semimetal with broken…

We apply the optimal fluctuation method to the calculation of the optical absorption in disordered one-dimensional semiconductors below the fundamental optical gap. We find that a photon energy exists at which the shape of the optimal…

We compute the electrical conductivities at non-zero frequency in a top-down holographic model of a Weyl semimetal, consisting of $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric $\mathrm{SU}(N_c)$ Yang--Mills theory coupled to $\mathcal{N}=2$…

Topological insulators display unusual light-matter interactions due to the helical nature of surface electronic states. We study the near-field interaction of light propagating in an optical fiber with crystals of Sb2Te3, a 3D topological…

Using symmetry analysis and semiclassical Boltzmann equation, we theoretically explore the planar Hall effect (PHE) in three-dimensional materials. We demonstrate that PHE is a general phenomenon that can occur in various systems regardless…

Recent angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements have identified an inversion symmetry breaking Weyl semimetal phase in TaAs and NbAs. In an inversion symmetry breaking Weyl semimetal the left and the right handed Weyl points…

We show that a Weyl superconductor can absorb light via a novel surface-to-bulk mechanism, which we dub the topological anomalous skin effect. This occurs even in the absence of disorder for a single-band superconductor, and is facilitated…

We propose that a Floquet Weyl semimetal state can be induced in three-dimensional topological insulators, either nonmagnetic or magnetic, by the application of off-resonant light. The virtual photon processes play a critical role in…

Using Hall photovoltage measurements, we demonstrate that an anomalous Hall-voltage can be induced in few layer WTe2 under circularly polarized light illumination. By applying a bias voltage along different crystal axes, we find that the…

In this work we explore the effects of nonlinearity on three-dimensional topological phases. Of particular interest are the so-called Weyl semimetals, known for their Weyl nodes, i.e., point-like topological charges which always exist in…

We discuss the possibility of realizing Weyl semimetal phase in the magnetically doped topological band insulators. When the magnetic moments are ferromagnetically polarized, we show that there are three phases in the system upon the…

We formulate a bulk spectroscopic method for direct measurement of the topological invariant of nondegenerate band crossings in Weyl semimetals. We demonstrate how polarization-resolved resonant x-ray scattering captures the winding of the…
