Unconventional quasiparticle excitations in condensed matter systems have become one of the most important research frontiers. Beyond two- and fourfold degenerate Weyl and Dirac fermions, three-, six- and eightfold symmetry protected…
We theoretically propose that, the single crystal formed TaS is a new type of topological semimetal, hosting ring-shaped gapless nodal lines and triply degenerate points (TDPs) in the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In the presence of…
Unconventional fermions, such as three-fold, four-fold, six-fold, and eight-fold fermions have attracted intense attention in recent years. However, the concrete materials hosting unconventional fermions are still in urgent scarcity. In…
Unconventional fermions in the immensely studied topological semimetals are the source for rich exotic topological properties. Here, using symmetry analysis and first-principles calculations, we propose the coexistence of multiple…
The realization of single-pair chiral fermions in Weyl systems remains challenging in topology physics, especially for the systems with higher chiral charges $C$. In this work, based on the symmetry analysis, low-energy effective model, and…
We report the detailed electronic structure of WTe$_2$ by high resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Unlike the simple one electron plus one hole pocket type of Fermi surface topology reported before, we resolved a rather…
Band topology, or global wave-function structure that enforces novel properties in the bulk and on the surface of crystalline materials, is currently under intense investigations for both fundamental interest and its technological promises.…
Chirality, a fundamental structural property of crystals, can induce many unique topological quantum phenomena. In kagome lattice, unconventional transports have been reported under tantalizing chiral charge order. Here, we show how by…
The interplay between charge order (CO) and nontrivial band topology has spurred tremendous interest in understanding topological excitations beyond the single-particle description. In a quasi-one-dimensional nonsymmorphic crystal TaTe$_4$,…
In this paper, we present a novel experimental approach for simulating and detecting topological invariants using ultracold fermions confined in two-dimensional hexagonal optical lattices. We propose achieving two-fold degenerate four-band…
We theoretically investigate a tight binding model of fermions hopping on the square-octagon lattice which consists of a square lattice with plaquette corners themselves decorated by squares. Upon the inclusion of second neighbor spin-orbit…
Van der Waals (vdW) materials are an indispensable part of functional device technology due to their versatile physical properties and ease of exfoliating to the low-dimensional limit. Among all the compounds investigated so far, the search…
PdSb2 is a candidate for hosting 6-fold-degenerate exotic fermions (beyond Dirac and Weyl fermions).The nontrivial band crossing protected by the nonsymmorphic symmetry plays a crucial role in physical properties. We have grown high-quality…
We report the synthesis, crystal structure and characterization by means of single crystal x-ray diffraction, neutron powder diffraction, magnetic, thermal and transport measurements of the new heavy fermion compounds…
In band theory of solids, degeneracies manifest themselves as point, line, and surface objects. The topological nature of band degeneracies has recently been appreciated since the recognition of gapless topological quantum phases of matter.…
Quantum information theory and strongly correlated electron systems share a common theme of macroscopic quantum entanglement. In both topological error correction codes and theories of quantum materials (spin liquid, heavy fermion and…
Topological metals possess various types of symmetry-protected degenerate band crossings. When a topological metal becomes superconducting, the low-energy electronic excitations stemming from the band crossings located close to the Fermi…
Heavy fermion systems represent one of the paradigmatic strongly correlated states of matter. They have been used as a platform for investigating exotic behavior ranging from quantum criticality and non-Fermi liquid behavior to…
Topological metals and semimetals (TMs) have recently drawn significant interest. These materials give rise to condensed matter realizations of many important concepts in high-energy physics, leading to wide-ranging protected properties in…
Chiral crystals are materials whose lattice structure has a well-defined handedness due to the lack of inversion, mirror, or other roto-inversion symmetries. These crystals represent a broad, important class of quantum materials; their…
