Using a conserving Baym-Kadanoff approach, we present a fully compelling theory of nonlinear dc response of a Dirac system to electric fields in the presence of disorder scattering. We show that the nonlinear terms are strikingly ruled by…
The absence of mirror symmetry, or chirality, is behind striking natural phenomena found in systems as diverse as DNA and crystalline solids. A remarkable example occurs when chiral semimetals with topologically protected band degeneracies…
Dirac semimetals are expected to forbid the manifestation of the circular photogalvanic effect (CPGE) because of their crystal inversion symmetry. Here, we report the observation of the CPGE in Cd3As2 nanobelt field effect transistors, when…
We study ultrafast population dynamics in the topological surface state of Sb$_2$Te$_3$ in two-dimensional momentum space with time- and angle-resolved two-photon photoemission. Linear polarized mid-infrared pump pulses are used to permit a…
We theoretically study the effect of the Berry curvature on the transport properties of Weyl semimetals in the nonadiabatic process, which results in nonlinear optical responses. In the adiabatic process, the Berry curvature, which involves…
We theoretically explore Floquet engineering in few-layer black phosphorus (fBP) under time-periodic driving. Motivated by the ability of circularly polarized light to induce nontrivial topological states at Dirac nodes, we investigate the…
The electromagnetic response of Dirac semimetals in the infrared and terahertz frequency ranges is attracting growing interest for potential applications in optoelectronics and nonlinear optics. The interplay between the free-carrier…
We show that, under the effect of an external magnetic field, a photogalvanic effect and the generation of second harmonic wave can be induced in inversion-symmetric and time reversal invariant Dirac semimetals. The mechanism responsible of…
Steady illumination of a non-centrosymmetric semiconductor results in a bulk photovoltaic current, which is contributed by real-space displacements (`shifts') of charged quasiparticles as they transit between Bloch states. The shift induced…
In a slab geometry with large surface-to-bulk ratio, topological surface states such as Fermi arcs for Weyl or Dirac semimetals may dominate their low-energy properties. We investigate the collective charge oscillations in such systems,…
Double periodic variables (DPVs) are hot Algol-type interacting binary systems with an orbital and a long photometric cycle. The origin of the latter may be related to cyclic structural changes in the accretion disc that surrounds the…
Two quintuple layers of strong topological insulator Bi2Se3 are coupled by a Bi bilayer in BiSe crystal. We investigated its electronic structure using angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy to study its topological nature. Dirac like…
We build a Cu-MoTe2-Cu device model and use first-principles density functional theory to study the transport properties of single-layer Td-MoTe2. We obtained the effect of strain on the energy band structure, transport properties, and…
We have studied the energy dispersion of the Dirac bands of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 at large parallel momenta using a setup for laser-based time-resolved momentum microscopy with 6 eV probe-photons. Using this setup, we can probe…
In this study we analyze the topological invariants and edge states of transverse magnetic wave propagation in continuum photonic systems at a finite-width interface between two gyrotropic matrials with different magnetic bias. Where…
Topological photonic insulators show promise for applications in compact integrated photonic circuits due to their ability to transport light robustly through sharp bendings. The number of topological edge states relies on the difference…
The surface Fermi arc, as a hallmark of Weyl semimetals (WSMs), has been well known in current research, but it remains a challenge to unveil novel phenomena associated with the Fermi arc. Here, we predict a heretofore unrecognized process…
Subjecting a massive two-dimensional Dirac material to a vortex light beam provides a mechanism for the photo-induction of multiply quantized vortices. Using Floquet theory, we show that electronic vortices, characterized by their total…
It is often taken for granted that in pump-probe experiments on the topological insulator (TI) Bi2Se3 using IR pumping with a commercial Ti:Sapphire laser [~800 nm (1.55 eV photon energy)], the electrons are excited in the one-photon…
Recent development of ultrashort laser pulses allows for optical control of structural and electronic properties of complex quantum materials. The layered transition metal dichalcogenide MoTe2, which can crystalize into several different…
