We show by first-principles calculations that the Dirac nodal-line semimetal phase can co-exist with the ferromagnetic order at room temperature in chromium dioxide, a widely used material in magnetic tape applications, under small tensile…
The topological nodal-line semimetal state, serving as a fertile ground for various topological quantum phases, where a topological insulator, Dirac semimetal, or Weyl semimetal can be realized when the certain protecting symmetry is…
Nodal chain semimetals protected by nonsymmorphic symmetries are distinct from Dirac and Weyl semimetals, featuring unconventional topological surface states and resulting in anomalous magnetotransport properties. Here, we reveal that the…
The distinct over-tilting of band crossings in topological semimetal generates the type-I and typeII classification of Dirac/Weyl and nodal-line fermions, accompanied by the exotic electronic and magnetic transport properties. In this work,…
Based on first-principles calculations and effective model analysis, a Dirac nodal-net semimetal state is recognized in AlB$_2$-type TiB$_2$ and ZrB$_2$ when spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is ignored. Taking TiB$_2$ as an example, there are…
Theoretical evidence of the existence of six inequivalent and six threefold degenerate pairs of Dirac cones in the low-spectrum diagram of monolayered hexagonal CrB4 is provided. The four d-electrons of the Cr atom are yielded to the B…
Recently, the crystal symmetry-protected topological semimetals have aroused extensive interests, especially for the nonsymmorphic symmetry-protected one. We list the possible nonmagnetic topological semimetals and develop their k.p…
Compared to time-reversal symmetry-protected Z2 topological insulators and Dirac/Weyl semimetals, there are significantly fewer candidates for topological crystalline insulators. SrAg4Sb2 is predicted to exhibit topological crystalline…
Topological semimetals recently stimulate intense research activities. Combining first-principles calculations and effective model analysis, we predict that CaTe is topological node-line semimetal when spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is ignored.…
Topological nodal line semimetals, hosting one-dimensional Fermi lines with symmetry protection, has become a hot topic in topological quantum matter. Due to the breaking of time reversal symmetry in magnetic system, nodal lines require…
The nodal line semimetals have attracted much attention due to their unique topological electronic structure and exotic physical properties. A genuine nodal line semimetal is qualified by the presence of Dirac nodes along a line in the…
Topological phases can not only be protected by internal symmetries (e.g., time-reversal symmetry), but also by crystalline symmetries, such as reflection or rotation symmetry. Recently a complete topological classification of reflection…
Structural-property relationship, the connection between materials' structures and their properties, is central to the materials research. Especially at reduced dimensions, novel structural motifs often generate unique physical…
Topological semimetal phases in two-dimensional (2D) materials have gained widespread interest due to their potential applications in developing nanoscale devices. Despite the prediction of the Dirac/Weyl points in a wide variety of 2D…
BaMg2Bi2 is a Dirac semimetal characterized by a simple Dirac cone crossing the Fermi level at the center of the Brillouin zone, protected by C3 rotational symmetry. Together with its Sr-based analogue SrMg2Bi2, it has been proposed as a…

Motivated by recent experiments probing anomalous surface states of Dirac semimetals (DSMs) Na$_3$Bi and Cd$_3$As$_2$, we raise the question posed in the title. We find that, in marked contrast to Weyl semimetals, the gapless surface states…
The search for symmetry-protected 2D Dirac semimetals analogous to graphene is important both for fundamental and practical interest. The 2D Dirac cones are protected by crystalline symmetries and magnetic ordering may destroy their…
Dirac semimetals host bulk band-touching Dirac points and a surface Fermi loop. We develop a theory of superconducting Dirac semimetals. Establishing a relation between the Dirac points and the surface Fermi loop, we clarify how the…
We analyze the topological properties of the possible superconducting states emerging from a Cd$_3$As$_2$-like, $\mathcal{C}_4$-symmetric Dirac semimetal, with two four-fold degenerate Dirac points separated in the $k_z$ direction. Unlike…
