We have found a ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal (WSM) in half metallic Co$_3$Sn$_2$Se$_2$. The three pairs of Weyl points near Fermi level (E$_F$) are derived from nodal lines gapped by spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Though the Weyl points are…

It has been noted that certain surfaces of Weyl semimetals have bound states forming open Fermi arcs, which are never seen in typical metallic states. We show that the Fermi arcs enable them to support an even more exotic surface state with…

We study the stability of gap-closing (Weyl or Dirac) points in the three-dimensional Brillouin zone of semimetals using Clifford algebras and their representation theory. We show that a pair of Weyl points with $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological…

We study the electronic band structure of three-dimensional ABC-stacked (rhombohedral) graphdiyne, which is a new planar carbon allotrope recently fabricated. Using the first-principles calculation, we show that the system is a nodal-line…

Based on first-principles calculations and effective model analysis, we propose that the noncentrosymmetric superconductor YCoC$_2$ in normal state is a topological semimetal. In the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC), it can host two…

We propose that the topological semimetal features can co-exist with ferromagnetic ground state in vanadium-phosphorous-oxide $\beta$-V$_2$OPO$_4$ compound from first-principles calculations. In this magnetic system with inversion symmetry,…

We theoretically show that IV-VI semiconducting compounds with low-temperature rhombohedral crystal structure represent a new potential platform for topological semimetals. By means of minimal $\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{p}$ models we find that…

We show how to realize topologically protected crossings of three energy bands, integer-spin analogs of Weyl fermions, in three-dimensional optical lattices. Our proposal only involves ultracold atom techniques that have already been…

We propose a scheme to simulate and explore Weyl semimetal physics with ultracold fermionic atoms in a two-dimensional square optical lattice subjected to experimentally realizable spin-orbit coupling and an artificial dimension from an…

The Weyl semimetals represent a distinct category of topological materials wherein the low-energy excitations appear as the long-sought Weyl fermions. Exotic transport and optical properties are expected because of the chiral anomaly and…

Weyl semimetals in three-dimensional crystals provide the paradigm example of topologically protected band nodes. It is usually taken for granted that a pair of colliding Weyl points annihilate whenever they carry opposite chiral charge. In…

We report a study of the Fermi surface of the chiral semimetal CoSi and its relationship to a network of multifold topological crossing points,Weyl points, and topological nodal planes in the electronic band structure. Combining quantum…

The surface of a Weyl semimetal famously hosts an exotic topological metal that contains open Fermi arcs rather than closed Fermi surfaces. In this work, we show that the surface is also endowed with a feature normally associated with…

We study non-Hermitian higher-order Weyl semimetals (NHHOWSMs) possessing real spectra and having inversion $\mathcal{I}$ ($\mathcal{I}$-NHHOWSM) or time-reversal symmetry $\mathcal{T}$ ($\mathcal{T}$-NHHOWSM). When the reality of bulk…

We explore the topological properties of double-Weyl semimetals with cold atoms in optical lattices. We first propose to realize a tight-binding model of simulating the double-Weyl semimetal with a pair of double-Weyl points by engineering…

We study the problem of phase transitions from 3D topological to normal insulators without inversion symmetry. In contrast with the conclusions of some previous work, we show that a Weyl semimetal always exists as an intermediate phase…

Weyl semimetals are extremely interesting. Although the first Weyl semimetal was recently discovered in TaAs, research progress is still significantly hindered due to the lack of robust and ideal materials candidates. In order to observe…

Floquet engineering provides a powerful and flexible method for modifying the band structures of quantum materials. While circularly polarized light has been shown to convert curved nodal lines in three-dimensional semimetals into Weyl…

Weyl semimetals are gapless three-dimensional (3D) phases whose bandstructures contain Weyl point (WP) degeneracies. WPs carry topological charge and can only be eliminated by mutual annihilation, a process that generates the various…

The recently discovered type-II Weyl points appear at the boundary between electron and hole pockets. Type-II Weyl semimetals that host such points are predicted to exhibit a new type of chiral anomaly and possess thermodynamic properties…
