A WTe2 single crystal was grown by the chemical vapor transport method, and its electrical resistivity and galvanomagnetic properties were investigated. Single-band and two-band models were used to estimate the concentration and mobility of…
The intrinsic weak and highly non-local dielectric screening of two-dimensional materials is well known to lead to high sensitivity of their optoelectronic properties to environment. Less studied theoretically is the role of free carriers…
Weyl points are point degeneracies that occur in momentum space of periodic materials, and are associated with a quantized topological charge. We experimentally observe in a 3D micro-printed photonic crystal that a charge-2 Weyl point can…
Semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as materials that can be used to realize two-dimensional (2D) crystals possessing rather unique transport and optical properties. Most research has so far focused on sulfur…
Topological superconductors have long been sought for their potential use in quantum computing. The type-II Weyl semimetal MoTe$_{2}$ is an obvious candidate, exhibiting a superconducting state below 500 mK at ambient pressure, but the…
The quasiparticle spectra of atomically thin semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and their response to an ultrafast optical excitation critically depend on interactions with the underlying substrate. Here, we present a…
Currently, topological semimetals are being actively investigated from both theoretical and experimental perspectives due to their unique physical properties, including topologically protected states, large magnetoresistivity, and high…
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…
We investigate the nonequilibrium photocarrier dynamics of WTe2 under pressure using the optical pump-probe spectroscopy. The pressure dependences of the electronic relaxation manifest anomalous changes around 0.8, 3.5, and 6 GPa,…
