The prospect of a Dirac half metal, a material which is characterized by a bandstructure with a gap in one spin channel but a Dirac cone in the other, is of both fundamental interest and a natural candidate for use in spin-polarized current…
Two-dimensional semimetals with tilted Dirac cones in the electronic band structure are shown to exhibit spatial separation of carriers belonging to different valleys under illumination. In stark contrast to gapped Dirac materials this…
3D Dirac semi-metals (DSMs) are materials that have massless Dirac electrons and exhibit exotic physical properties It has been suggested that structurally distorting a DSM can create a Topological Insulator (TI), but this has not yet been…
Strong coupling between the electronic states of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) such as MoS$_2$, MoSe$_2$, WS$_2$, or WSe$_2$, and a two-dimensional (2D) photonic cavity gives rise to several exotic effects. The Dirac…
It is proposed that the new generation of spintronics should be ideally massless and dissipationless for the realization of ultra-fast and ultra-low-power spintronic devices. We demonstrate that the spin-gapless materials with linear energy…
Dirac points in two-dimensional electronic structures are a source for topological electronic states due to the $\pm \pi$ Berry phase that they sustain. Here we show that two rutile multilayers (namely (WO$_2$)$_2$/(ZrO$_2$)$_n$ and…
The enchanting Dirac fermions in graphene stimulated us to seek for other two-dimensional (2D) Dirac materials, and boron monolayers may be a good candidate. So far, a number of monolayer boron sheets have been theoretically predicted, and…
Filling-enforced Dirac semimetals, or those required at specific fillings by the combination of crystalline and time-reversal symmetries, have been proposed and discovered in numerous materials. However, Dirac points in these materials are…
We present a unified theory of charge carrier transport in 2D Dirac systems with broken mirror inversion and time-reversal symmetries (e.g., as realized in ferromagnetic graphene). We find that the entanglement between spin and pseudospin…
Two-dimensional Dirac physics has aroused great interests in condensed matter physics ever since the discovery of graphene and topological insulators due to its importance in both fundamental physics and device applications. The ability to…
Two-dimensional (2D) Dirac states and Dirac points with linear dispersion are the hallmark of graphene, topological insulators, semimetals, and superconductors. Lowering a symmetry by the ferroelectric polarization opens the gap in Dirac…
Discrete fermionic and bosonic models for hyperbolic lattices have attracted significant attention across a range of fields since the experimental realization of hyperbolic lattices in metamaterial platforms, sparking the development of…
Here, we report by first-principles calculations one new stable 2D Dirac material, Ta2Se3 monolayer. For this system, stable layered bulk phase exists, and exfoliation should be possible. Ta2Se3 monolayer is demonstrated to support two…
Valleytronics is a rapidly advancing field that explores the use of the valley degree of freedom in electronic systems to encode and process information. It relies on electronic states with spin valley locking, first predicted and observed…
We study the quantum diffusive transport of multivalley massive Dirac cones, where time-reversal symmetry requires opposite spin orientations in inequivalent valleys. We show that the intervalley scattering and intravalley scattering can be…
We theoretically study intrinsic superconductivity in doped Dirac semimetals. Dirac semimetals host bulk Dirac points, which are formed by doubly degenerate bands, so the Hamiltonian is described by a $4 \times 4$ matrix and six types of…
Interplay of crystal symmetry, strong spin$-$orbit coupling (SOC), and many-body interactions in low dimensional materials provides a fertile ground for the discovery of unconventional electronic and magnetic properties and versatile…
We investigate the unusual properties of quasirelativistic massless fermions under a magnetic or electric field by means of nonminimal couplings. Within this approach, the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects are properly generated in the…
Arc-like topological surface states, i.e., surface Fermi arcs, have long been recognized as the hallmark of Dirac semimetals. However, recent theories suggest that the surface Fermi arcs could evolve into closed Fermi loops, akin to surface…
Two-dimensional (2D) metallic altermagnets present exciting opportunities for both fundamental research and practical innovations. Their ability to enhance tunneling magnetoresistance in magnetic tunnel junctions, combined with the direct…
