A wide range of materials, like d-wave superconductors, graphene, and topological insulators, share a fundamental similarity: their low-energy fermionic excitations behave as massless Dirac particles rather than fermions obeying the usual…
The aim of this habilitation thesis is to present recent results, obtained during the period 2012-2017, related to interaction effects in condensed matter physics systems such as planar Dirac liquids, e.g., graphene and graphene-like…
Weyl semimetals are phases of matter with gapless electronic excitations that are protected by topology and symmetry. Their properties depend on the dimensions of the systems. It has been theoretically demonstrated that five-dimensional…
We propose a novel approach to study the topological properties of matter. In this approach, fermionic atoms are placed in an external magnetic field and in a two-dimensional spin-dependent optical lattice (SDOL) created by intersecting…
Topological semimetals, representing a new topological phase that lacks a full bandgap in bulk states and exhibiting nontrivial topological orders, recently have been extended to photonic systems, predominantly in photonic crystals and to a…
The crystal-symmetry-paired spin-momentum locking (CSML) arisen from the intrinsic crystal symmetry connecting different magnetic sublattices in altermagnets enables many exotic spintronics properties such as unconventional piezomagnetism…
A three-dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal is the 3D analog of graphene whose bulk band shows a linear dispersion relation in the 3D momentum space. Since each Dirac point with four-fold degeneracy carries a zero Chern number, a Dirac…
Three-dimensional (3D) topological semimetals represent a new class of topological matters. The study of this family of materials has been at the frontiers of condensed matter physics, and many breakthroughs have been made. Several…
Nonsymmorphic crystalline symmetries provide a robust route to symmetry-protected electronic topology, yet their role in stabilizing intrinsic topological superconductivity remains largely unexplored. Here, we report \ch{TaPtSi} as a new…
Discovering new topological phases of matter is a major theme in fundamental physics and materials science. Dirac semimetal provides an exceptional platform for exploring topological phase transitions under symmetry breaking. Recent…
The three-dimensional Dirac semimetal is distinct from its two-dimensional counterpart due to its dimensionality and symmetry. Here, we observe that molecule-based quasi-two-dimensional Dirac fermion system, $\alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$,…
Non-Hermiticity in Weyl Hamiltonian leads to the realization of Weyl exceptional rings and flat bands inside the Weyl exceptional rings. Recently, the platform of non-Hermitian physics is extended to many-body or disordered systems where…
Most topological insulators discovered today in spinful systems can be transformed from topological semimetals (TSMs) with vanishing bulk gap via introducing the spin-orbit coupling (SOC), which manifests the intrinsic links between the…
We propose an unconventional type of Hall effect in a topological Dirac semimetal with ferromagnetic electrodes. The topological Dirac semimetal itself has time-reversal symmetry, whereas attached ferromagnetic electrodes break it, causing…
Topological semimetals have attracted extensive research interests for realizing condensed matter physics counterparts of three-dimensional Dirac and Weyl fermions, which were originally introduced in high energy physics. Recently it has…
Three-dimensional Dirac and Weyl semimetals have attracted widespread interest in condensed matter physics and material science. Here, based on first-principles calculations and symmetry analysis, we report that Ag$_2$S with…
Vortex lines in superconducting Dirac semimetals realize crystal-symmetry-protected gapless vortex-line phases in which gapless excitations propagate inside a vortex line, in the presence of appropriate crystal symmetry, spin-orbit…
Topological insulators, featuring bulk-boundary correspondence, have been realized on a large number of noncrystalline materials, among which amorphous network, quasicrystals and fractal lattices are the most prominent ones. By contrast,…
Materials with triply-degenerate nodal points in their low-energy electronic spectrum produce crystalline-symmetry-enforced three-fold fermions, which conceptually lie between the two-fold Weyl and four-fold Dirac fermions. Here we show how…
Owing to the natural compatibility with current semiconductor industry, silicon allotropes with diverse structural and electronic properties provide promising platforms for the next-generation Si-based devices. After screening 230…
