The optical properties of YbMnSb2 have been measured in a broad frequency range from room temperature down to 7 K. With decreasing temperature, a flat region develops in the optical conductivity spectra at about 300cm-1, which can not be…

Topological materials are often associated with exceptional thermoelectric properties. Orthorhombic BaMnSb2 is a topological semimetal consisting of alternating layers of Ba, Sb, and MnSb. A recent experiment demonstrates that BaMnSb2 has a…

Three dimensional (3D) topological Dirac materials are under intensive study recently. The layered compound ZrTe$_5$ has been suggested to be one of them by transport and ARPES experiments. Here, we perform infrared reflectivity measurement…

The optical conductivity of MgB$_2$ has been determined on a dense polycrystalline sample in the spectral range 6 meV - 4.6 eV using a combination of ellipsometric and normal incidence reflectivity measurements. $\sigma_{1}(\omega)$…

The intermetallic compound ZnSb is an interesting thermoelectric material, largely due to its low lattice thermal conductivity. The origin of the low thermal conductivity has so far been speculative. Using multi-temperature single crystal…
