We explore optical activity in thin films and bulk of type-I and type II Weyl semimetals (WSM), and demonstrate the existence of a giant Kerr effect in both. In time-reversal symmetry broken WSM thin films, the polarization rotation is…
Motivated by the recent proposal of giant Kerr rotation in WSMs, we investigate the Kerr and Faraday rotations in time-reversal broken multi-Weyl semimetals (mWSMs) in the absence of an external magnetic field. Using the framework of Kubo…
We investigate the optical activity of tilted nodal loop semimetals. We calculate the full conductivity matrix for a band structure containing a nodal loop with possible tilt in the $x-y$ plane, which allows us to study the Kerr rotation…
The topological nature of the band structure of a Weyl semimetal leads to a number of unique transport and optical properties. For example, the description of the propagation of an electromagnetic wave in a Weyl semimetal with broken…
We consider the electromagnetic response of a topological Weyl semimetal (TWS) with a pair of Weyl nodes in the bulk and corresponding Fermi arcs in the surface Brillouin zone. We compute the frequency-dependent complex conductivities…
Magneto-optical conductivity is a very widely studied transport coefficient, useful to understand and characterize the behaviour of materials under magnetic fields. Using the Kubo formula, we compute the components of the conductivity…
Multi-Weyl semimetals are new types of Weyl semimetals which have anisotropic non-linear energy dispersion and a topological charge larger than one, thus exhibiting a unique quantum response. Using a unified lattice model, we calculate the…
Magneto-optical studies of Weyl semimetals have been proposed as a versatile tool for observing low-energy Weyl fermions in candidate materials including the chiral Landau level. However, previous theoretical results have been restricted to…
We have studied the magneto-optical Kerr effect and optical reflectance of perpendicular magnetized Co/Pt films on self-assembly two-dimensional polystyrene spheres. It is shown that the magneto-optical and the reflectance spectra are…
In Weyl semimetals with broken inversion and time-reversal symmetries, the Maxwell equations are modified by the presence of the axion terms $\mathbf{b} $ and $b_{0}$ where, in the simplest case of a two-node Weyl semimetal, $% 2\hslash…
We calculate the influence of diffusive and ballistic transport on ultrafast magnetization in thick metallic films. When only diffusive transport is present, gradients of magnetization in the material remain up to picosecond timescales. In…
Type-II Weyl semimetals are characterized by the tilted linear dispersion in the low-energy excitations, mimicking Weyl fermions but with manifest violation of the Lorentz invariance, which has intriguing quantum transport properties. The…
Magnetotransport and magneto-optics experiments offer a very powerful probe for studying the physical properties of materials. Here, we investigate the second-order nonlinear magnetoconductivity of tilted type-I Weyl and multi-Weyl…
Weyl semimetal (WSM) feature tilted Dirac cones and can be type I or II depending on the magnitude of the tilt parameter ($C$). The boundary between the two types is at $C=1$ where the cones are tipped and there is a Lifshitz transition.…
Weyl semimetals (WSM) have been discovered in time-reversal symmetric materials, featuring monopoles of Berry's curvature in momentum space. WSM have been distinguished between Type-I and II where the velocity tilting of the cone in the…
The magneto-optical transport of gapless type-I tilted single Weyl semimetals exhibits suppression of total magnetoconductivities in the presence of orbital magnetic moment(OMM) in linear and nonlinear responses (Yang Gao et al., Phys. Rev.…
We investigate the dependence of the photogalvanic response of a multi-Weyl semimetal on its topological charge, tilt, and chemical potential. We derive analytical expressions for the shift and injection conductivities for tilted charge-$n$…
The ordinary Hall effect refers to generation of a transverse voltage upon exertion of an electric field in the presence of an out-of-plane magnetic field. While a linear Hall effect is commonly observed in systems with breaking…
Using a spin-polarized full-potential linear muffin-tin orbital method we present calculations of the nonlinear magneto-optical Kerr effect for thin bcc Fe films within a slab geometry. Film layer dependent contributions to the Kerr…
Weyl semimetal (WSM) thin films exhibit distinct electronic properties compared to their bulk counterparts. In this study, we theoretically investigate the nonreciprocal ballistic transport phenomena arising in WSM thin films due to surface…
