Topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) can exhibit unique, quantized electric phenomena such as fractional electric polarization and boundary-localized fractional charge. This quantized fractional charge is the generic observable for…
The compound CuTe (vulcanite) undergoes a quasi one dimensional charge density wave (CDW) at $T< T_{\mathrm{CDW}}=335$ K with a $5\times1\times2$ periodicity. The mechanism at its origin is debated. Several theoretical works claimed that…
Weyl nodes come in pairs of opposite chirality. For broken time reversal symmetry (TR) they are displaced in momentum space by $\bf{Q}$ and the anomalous DC Hall conductivity $\sigma_{xy}$ is proportional to $\bf{Q}$ at charge neutrality.…
Chirality-driven optical properties in charge density waves are of fundamental and practical importance. Here, we investigate the interaction between circularly polarized light and emergent chiral stacking orders in quasi-one-dimensional…
Using an evolutionary algorithm in combination with first-principles density functional theory calculations, we identify two-dimensional (2D) CaP$_3$ monolayer as a new Dirac semimetal due to inversion and nonsymmorphic spatial symmetries…
Characterization of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings at cryogenic temperatures (down to 77 K) is presented, covering the electrical resistivity range of practical interest to gaseous and liquid particle instrumentation: 10^-1-10^5…
We show that the previously predicted Fermion particle that has no analogue in the standard model of particle theory - the cubically dispersed Dirac semimetal (CDSM) - is realized in a specific, stable solid state system that has been made…
We analyze superconductivity in the cuprates near the onset of an incommensurate charge density wave (CDW) order with momentum ${\bf Q} = (Q,0)/(0,Q)$, as observed in the experiments. We first consider a semi-phenomenological charge-fermion…
Charge density wave (CDW) resulted from a small distortion in the lattice is able to create new orders beyond the original lattice. In 2H-NbSe2, one of the layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD), the 3x3 charge order appears in…
The recently discovered topological Dirac semimetal represents a new exotic quantum state of matter. Topological Dirac semimetals can be viewed as three dimensional analogues of graphene, in which the Dirac nodes are protected by…
We analyze the instability of an unpolarized uniform quantum plasma consisting of two oppositely charged fermionic components with varying mass ratios, against charge and spin density waves (CDWs and SDWs). Using density functional theory,…
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-$n$…
Many-body instabilities and topological physics are two attractive topics in condensed matter physics. It is intriguing to explore the interplay between these phenomena in a single quantum material. Here, using the prototypical charge…
The dynamic conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ of strongly correlated electrons in a symmetry broken phase is investigated in the present work. The model considered consists of spinless fermions with repulsive interaction on a simple cubic…
The coupling of lattice deformations to the low energy electronic excitations of Dirac matter involve novel types of electron--phonon couplings as the celebrated elastic gauge fields first analyzed in graphene. In the continuum low energy…
Two-dimensional layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) materials often exhibit exotic quantum matter phases due to the delicate coupling and competitions between the charge, lattice, orbital, and spin degrees of freedom.…
This study investigates the electronic states and physical quantities of an organic charge-transfer complex HMTSF-TCNQ, which undergoes a charge-density-wave (CDW) phase transition at temperature $T_c\simeq 30$ K. A first-principles…
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…
The discovery of the charge density wave order (CDW) within a magnetically ordered phase in the kagome lattice FeGe has provided a promising platform to investigate intertwined degrees of freedom in kagome lattices. Recently, a method based…
The three-dimensional (3D) Dirac point, where two Weyl points overlap in momentum space, is usually unstable and hard to realize. Here we show, based on the first-principles calculations and effective model analysis, that crystalline…
