In this paper we study analytically a one-dimensional model for a semiconductor-metal junction. We study the formation of Tamm states and how they evolve when the semi-infinite semiconductor and metal are coupled together. The non-linear…
We experimentally compare two types of interface structures with magnetic and non-magnetic Weyl semimetals. They are the junctions between a gold normal layer and magnetic Weyl semimetal Ti$_2$MnAl, and a ferromagnetic nickel layer and…
Transport properties of 2D materials especially close to their boundary has received much attention after the successful fabrication of graphene and other fascinating materials afterwards. While most previous work is devoted to the…
In this work we provide a new direct and non-numerical technique to obtain the surface Green's functions for three-dimensional systems. This technique is based on the ideas presented in Phys. Rev. B 100, 081106(R), in which we start with an…
In this article, we consider a theoretical model for a type I Weyl semimetal, under the presence of a diluted uniform concentration of torsional dislocations. By a mathematical analysis for partial wave scattering (phase-shift) for the…
We do parametric calculations to elucidate multi-terminal electron transport properties through a molecular system where a single phenalenyl molecule is attached to semi-infinite one-dimensional metallic leads. A formalism based on the…
A signature property of Weyl semimetals is the existence of topologically protected surface states - arcs in momentum space that connect Weyl points in the bulk. However, the presence of bulks states makes detection of surface contributions…
We analyze the structure of the surface states and Fermi arcs of Weyl semimetals as a function of the boundary conditions parameterizing the Hamiltonian self-adjoint extensions of a minimal model with two Weyl points. These boundary…
We derive a formula for the current through an interacting quantum dot coupled to two supercouducting leads, using the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism. It is shown that the formula takes an especially simple form, when the…
Topological nodal-line semimetals are always characterized by the drumhead surface states at the open boundaries. In this paper we first derive an analytical expression for the surface Green's function of a nodal-line semimetal. By making…
Fermi arcs in Weyl semimetals provide a unique platform for surface-state engineering, yet di rectly tracking of their evolution under surface tuning remains experimentally challenging. Here we theoretically propose that nonreciprocal…
We use the effective-mass approximation and the density-functional theory with the local-density approximation for modeling two-dimensional nano-structures connected phase-coherently to two infinite leads. Using the non-equilibrium Green's…
Nonlocality is an interesting topic in quantum physics and is usually mediated by some unique quantum states. Here we investigate a Weyl semimetal slab and find an exotic nonlocal correlation effect when placing two potential wells merely…
We theoretically study low energy electric transport in a junction consisting of a Weyl semimetal and a metallic superconductor. The characteristic features of the differential conductance depend on the relative directions between the…
The phenomenon of nonlinear transport has attracted tremendous interest within the condensed matter community. We present a theoretical framework for nonlinear transport based on the nonequilibrium retarded Green's function, and examine the…
We show that under the effect of an external electric field and a gradient of chemical potential, a topological electric current can be induced in Weyl semimetals without inversion and mirror symmetries. We derive analytic expressions for…
The response to an electric field (DC and AC) of electronic systems in which the Fermi "surface" consists of a number of 3D Weyl points (such as some pyrochlore iridates) exhibits a peculiar combination of characteristics usually associated…
Simulations of quantum transport in coherent conductors have evolved into mature techniques that are used in fields of physics ranging from electrical engineering to quantum nanoelectronics and material science. The most efficient…
We study the low-energy single-electron transport across a junction of two magnetic Weyl semimetals, in which the anisotropy axes are tilted one respect to the other. Using a two-band model with a potential step, we compute the transmission…
The transport and fluctuation properties of organic molecules ordered parallel between two Au contact leads are investigated by the method of surface Green function. From first-principles simulation the relevant hopping parameters are…
