Recently, negative longitudinal and positive in-plane transverse magnetoresistance have been observed in most topological Dirac/Weyl semimetals, and some other topological materials. Here we present a quantum theory of intrinsic…

The electronic transport experiments on topological insulators exhibit a dilemma. A negative cusp in magnetoconductivity is widely believed as a quantum transport signature of the topological surface states, which are immune from…

Semi-Dirac semimetals have received enthusiastic research both theoretically and experimentally in the recent years. Due to the anisotropic dispersion, its physical properties are highly direction-dependent. In this work we employ the…

Dirac metals are characterized by the linear dispersion of fermionic quasi-particles, with the Dirac point hidden inside a Fermi surface. We study the magnetotransport in these materials using chiral kinetic theory to describe within the…

Massive Dirac fermions break the chiral symmetry explicitly and also make the Berry curvature of the band structure non-Abelian. By utilizing the Green's function technique, we develop a microscopic theory to establish a set of quantum…

The properties of surface Dirac Fermions on a 3D topological insulator in proximity to a magnetic insulator with spatially textured magnetization are considered. We present an exact analytical treatment of the spectrum, the bound states and…

Magnetotransport measurements are a popular way of characterizing the electronic structure of topological materials and often the resulting datasets cannot be described by the well-known Drude model due to large, non-parabolic…

We theoretically investigate the interlayer magnetoresistance in quasi-two-dimensional Dirac fermion systems, where the Fermi energy is at the Dirac point. If there is an intermediate insulating layer that has an overlap with the wave…

Topological insulators have an insulating bulk but a metallic surface. In the simplest case, the surface electronic structure of a 3D topological insulator is described by a single 2D Dirac cone. A single 2D Dirac fermion cannot be realized…

Weak localization and weak anti-localization are quantum interference effects in quantum transport in a disordered electron system. Weak anti-localization enhances the conductivity and weak localization suppresses the conductivity with…

On the basis of self-consistent Born approximation, we solve the Bethe-Salpeter matrix equations for Cooperon propagator of the Dirac fermions in graphene under the charged impurity scatterings and a weak external magnetic field. In the…

A magnetoconductivity formula is presented for the surface states of a magnetically doped topological insulator. It reveals a competing effect of weak localization and weak antilocalization in quantum transport when an energy gap is opened…

We study the magneto-transport properties on the disordered surface of a topological insulator attached with a ferromagnet/ferromagnet junction. Since, in the surface Dirac Hamiltonian, out-of-plane magnetization induces a mass gap, while…

We study transport across a time-dependent magnetic barrier present on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator. We show that such a barrier can be implemented for Dirac electrons on the surface of a three-dimensional…

Topological insulators are a novel class of quantum matter with a gapped insulating bulk yet gapless spin helical Dirac fermion conducting surface states. Here, we report local and non-local electrical and magneto transport measurements in…

The relativistic Dirac equation covers the fundamentals of electronic phenomena in solids and as such it effectively describes the electronic states of the topological insulators like Bi$_2$Se$_3$ and Bi$_2$Te$_3$. Topological insulators…

We review our recent works on the quantum transport, mainly in topological semimetals and also in topological insulators, organized according to the strength of the magnetic field. At weak magnetic fields, we explain the negative…

We study the properties of Dirac fermions on the surface of a topological insulator in the presence of crossed electric and magnetic fields. We provide an exact solution to this problem and demonstrate that, in contrast to their…

We use the determinant Quantum Monte Carlo method (DQMC) to study the interaction-driven semimetal to antiferromagnetic insulator transition in a $\pi$-flux Hamiltonian with modulated hoppings, a model which has two species of Dirac…

Four-component massive and massless Dirac fermions in the presence of long range Coulomb interaction and chemical potential disorder exhibit striking fermionic quantum criticality. For an odd number of flavors of Dirac fermions, the sign of…
