Resistivity anomaly, a sharp peak of resistivity at finite temperatures, in the transition-metal pentatellurides ZrTe5 and HfTe5 was observed four decades ago, and more exotic and anomalous behaviors of electric and thermoelectric transport…
Transition metal pentatelluride ZrTe5 is a versatile material in condensed-matter physics and has been intensively studied since the 1980s. The most fascinating feature of ZrTe5 is that it is a 3D Dirac semimetal which has linear energy…
