Recent advances in delicate topology have expanded the classification of topological bands, but its presence in solid-state materials remains elusive. Here we show that delicate topology naturally emerges in the Luttinger-Kohn model that…
$\alpha$-Sn is well known as a typical Luttinger semimetal with a quadratic band touching at the $\Gamma$ point. Based on the effective $k\cdot p$ analysis as well as first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that multiple topological…
The search for new topological materials and states of matter is presently at the forefront of quantum materials research. One powerful approach to novel topological phases beyond the thermodynamic space is to combine different…
Topological insulators are materials with an insulating bulk interior while maintaining gapless boundary states against back scattering. Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is a prototypical topological insulator with a Dirac-cone surface state around $\Gamma$.…
The interplay between topology and interaction always plays an important role in condensed matter physics and induces many exotic quantum phases, while rare transition metal layered material (TMLM) has been proved to possess both. Here we…
We investigate the electronic structures of the alloyed Bi$_{1-x}$Sb$_x$ compounds based on first-principle calculations including spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and calculate the surface states of semi-infinite systems using maximally…
The Luttinger model of a quadratic-node semimetal for electrons with the $j=\frac32$ angular momentum under cubic symmetry is the parent, highest-symmetry low-energy model for a variety of topological and strongly correlated materials, such…
We report on angle resolved photoemission spectroscopic studies on a parent topological insulator (TI), Bi$_2$Se$_3$. The line width of the spectral function (inverse of the quasi-particle lifetime) of the topological metallic (TM) states…
Topological crystalline insulator (TCI) is one of the symmetry-protected topological states. Any TCI can be deformed into a simple product state of several decoupled two-dimensional (2D) topologically nontrivial layers in its lattice…
By first-principles calculations, we find that Ba2X(X=Si, Ge) hosts a topological semimetal phase with one nodal ring in the kx=0 plane, which is protected by the glide mirror symmetry when spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is ignored. The…
In this paper, we present a detailed study on the phase diagrams of superconducting topological surface states, especially, focusing on the interplay between crystalline symmetry and topology of the effective BdG Hamiltonian. We show that…
The modern very large-scale integration systems based on silicon semiconductor are facing the unprecedented challenges especially when transistor feature size lowers further, due to the excruciating tunneling effect and thermal management.…
We propose the creation of a two-dimensional topological semimetal in a semiconductor artificial lattice with triangular symmetry. An in-plane magnetic field drives a quantum phase transition between the topological insulating and…
We review recent experimental progresses on layered topological materials, mainly focusing on transitional metal dichalcogenides with various lattice types including 1T, Td and 1T' structural phases. Their electronic quantum states are…
Defying the traditional classification into metals and insulators, several materials simultaneously display metallic thermal properties and insulating electric behaviour, as if they hosted quasiparticles carrying entropy but not charge.…
Luttinger semimetals have quadratic band crossings at the Brillouin zone-center in three spatial dimensions. Coulomb interactions in a model that describes these systems stabilize a non-trivial fixed point associated with a non-Fermi liquid…
Topological phases are characterised by a topological invariant that remains unchanged by deformations in the Hamiltonian. Materials exhibiting topological phases include topological insulators, superconductors exhibiting strong spin-orbit…
Three-dimensional obstructed atomic insulators (OAIs) are characterized by the appearance of floating surface states (FSSs) at specific surfaces. Benefiting from this feature, our study here shows the presence of abundant surface-semimetal…
Topological crystalline insulators (TCI) are insulating electronic phases of matter with nontrivial topology originating from crystalline symmetries. Recent theoretical advances have provided powerful guidelines to search for TCIs in real…
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…
