The interesting properties of Kagome bands, consisting of Dirac bands and a flat band, have attracted extensive attention. However, the materials with only one Kagome band around the Fermi level cannot possess physical properties of Dirac…
We propose two novel two-dimensional (2D) topological materials, (PtN$_4$)$_3$C$_{32}$ and (MnN$_4$)$_3$C$_{32}$, with a special geometry that we named as kagome-in-honeycomb (KIH) lattice structure, to illustrate the coexistence of the…
Kagome materials are at the frontier of condensed matter physics. An ideal kagome lattice features only one geometrically frustrated flat band spanning the entire momentum space and a single Dirac cone at the Brillouin-zone corners.…
We introduce carbon Kagome nanotubes (CKNTs) -- a new allotrope of carbon formed by rolling up sheets of Kagome graphene, and investigate the properties of this material using first principles calculations. Based on the direction of…
The kagome lattice based on 3d transition metals is a versatile platform for novel topological phases hosting symmetry-protected electronic excitations and exotic magnetic ground states. However, the paradigmatic states of the idealized…
Semimetals, in which conduction and valence bands touch but do not form Fermi surfaces, have attracted considerable interest for their anomalous properties starting with the discovery of Dirac matter in graphene and other two-dimensional…
We propose three transition-metal adatom systems on 3C-SiC(111) surfaces as a versatile platform to realize massless Dirac fermions and flat bands with strong electronic correlations. Using density functional theory combined with the…
Condensed matter systems with coexisting Dirac cones and flat bands, and a switchable control between them within a single system, are desirable but remarkably uncommon. Here we report a layered quantum material system, KxNi4S2 (0 <= x <=…
Employing a combination of first-principles calculations and low-energy effective models, we present a comprehensive investigation on the electronic structure of Pb$_{10}$(PO$_{4}$)$_{6}$O$_{4}$, which exhibits remarkable…
Flat bands, emergent in strongly correlated electron systems, stand at the frontier of condensed matter physics, providing fertile ground for unconventional quantum phases. Recent observations of dispersionless bands at the Fermi level in…
We propose an exact analytical decimation transformation scheme to explore the fascinating coexistence of flat bands and Dirac fermions in three-dimensional coupled kagome systems. Our method allows coarse-graining of the parameter space…
A kagome lattice of 3d transition metals hosts flat bands, Dirac fermions and saddle points. It provides a versatile platform for achieving topological superconductivity, anomalous Hall effect, unconventional density wave order and quantum…
Materials with flat bands can serve as a promising platform to investigate strongly interacting phenomena. However, experimental realization of ideal flat bands is mostly limited to artificial lattices or moir\'e systems. Here we report a…
Three-dimensional Dirac semimetals, a three-dimensional analogue of graphene, are unusual quantum materials with massless Dirac fermions, which can be further converted to Weyl fermions by breaking time reversal or inversion symmetry.…
Due to the flexibility of C and N atoms in forming different types of bonds, the prediction of new two-dimensional (2D) carbon nitrides is a hot topic in the field of carbon-based materials. Using first-principles calculations, we propose…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials may exhibit intriguing band structure features (e.g., Dirac points), that lay far away from the Fermi level. They are, thus, not usable in applications. The semiconducting 2D material PC6 has two Dirac cones…
We study theoretically two-dimensional single-crystalline sheets of semiconductors that form a honeycomb lattice with a period below 10 nm. These systems could combine the usual semiconductor properties with Dirac bands. Using atomistic…
Three-dimensional (3D) topological Dirac semimetals (TDSs) represent a novel state of quantum matter that can be viewed as '3D graphene'. In contrast to two-dimensional (2D) Dirac fermions in graphene or on the surface of 3D topological…
Among the quantum materials that gained interest recently are the topological Dirac/Weyl semimetals, where conduction and valence bands touch at points in reciprocal (k)-space, and the Dirac nodal-line semimetals, where these bands touch…
The three-dimensional (3D) topological Dirac semimetal is a new topological phase of matter, viewed as the 3D analogy of graphene with a linear dispersion in the 3D momentum space. Here, we report the angular dependent magnetotransport in…
