Correlated transition metal oxides present exciting prospects as switches or memory and storage devices owing to the possibility to control electronic properties using various external stimuli. While their complex behaviour is known to stem…
Transition metal penta-tellurides, ZrTe5 and HfTe5 have been recently drawn a lot of attention due to their fascinating physical properties and for being prominent materials showing topological phase transitions. In this study, we…
Topological Kondo insulator SmB6 has attracted quite a lot of attentions from condensed matter physics community. A number of unique electronic properties, including low- temperature resistivity anomaly, 1D electronic transport and 2D Fermi…
A topological phase transition from a trivial insulator to a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological insulator requires the bulk band gap to vanish. In the case of noncentrosymmetric materials, these phases are separated by a gapless Weyl semimetal…
We report a room-temperature optical reflectivity study performed on [112]-oriented Cd$_3$As$_2$ single crystals over a broad energy range under external pressure up to 10 GPa. The abrupt drop of the band dispersion parameter…
The nature of the pseudogap phase of cuprate high-temperature superconductors is a major unsolved problem in condensed matter physics. We studied the commencement of the pseudogap state at temperature T* using three different techniques…
In this paper, we make a comprehensive study of the properties of a gapped Dirac semimetal model, which was originally proposed in the magnetoinfrared spectroscopy measurement of ZeTe$_5$, and includes both the linear and parabolic…
Dirac points in two-dimensional massless Dirac fermions are topologically protected. Although single Dirac point cannot disappear solely, a pair of two Dirac points annihilates after merging at a time-reversal invariant momentum (TRIM).…
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…
Among various topological insulators, Sn-doped Bi$_{1.1}$Sb$_{0.9}$Te$_{2}$S stands out for its exceptional properties. It has a wide energy gap and typically exhibits a well-isolated Dirac point and a Fermi level positioned within the gap.…
We consider the low-temperature thermal transport properties of the 2D proximity-induced superconducting state formed at the interface between a 3D strong topological insulator (TI) and a d-wave superconductor (dSC). This system is a…
PdTe has recently been reported to be a type-II Dirac semimetal while a bulk nodal and surface nodeless superconductivity (SC) has been claimed to coexist. In this work, we applied point-contact spectroscopy (PCS) method to systematically…
Cd$_3$As$_2$ is one of the prototypical topological Dirac semimetals. Here, we manipulate the band inversion responsible for the emergence of Dirac nodes by alloying Cd$_3$As$_2$ with topologically trivial Zn$_3$As$_2$. We observe the…
We investigate the phase diagram of the electron-doped systems in high-Tc cuprates. We calculate the superconducting transition temperature Tc, the antiferromagnetic transition temperature TN, the NMR relaxation rate 1/T1 with the…
One of the key issues in the physics of topological insulators is whether the topologically non-trivial properties survive at finite temperatures and, if so, whether they disappear only at the temperature of topological gap closing. Here,…
We apply $^{125}$Te nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to investigate the Dirac semimetal ZrTe$_5$. With the NMR magnetic field parallel to the $b$-axis, we observe significant quantum magnetic effects. These include an abrupt…
The material ZrTe$_5$ exhibits distinct topological phases, including a Weyl semimetal phase, characterized by a chiral anomaly and in-plane Hall effect, and a three-dimensional quantum Hall phase. The relationship between these phases…
The superconductor $FeSe_{0.5}Te_{0.5}$ was studied with Point Contact spectroscopy and specific heat in polycrystalline samples. The transition temperature determined by magnetic measurement was $T_C =14.5$ K. The size of the energy gap…
We show that a semi-Dirac (SD) system with an inversion symmetry breaking mass exhibits a topological phase transition when irradiated with off-resonant light. Using Floquet theory, we derive the band structure, Chern numbers, phase…
Topological semimetals are systems in which the conduction and the valence bands cross each other and this crossing is protected by topological constraints. These materials provide an intriguing test of fundamental theory and their…
