We study transport across junctions of a Weyl and a multi-Weyl semimetal (WSM and a MSM) separated by a region of thickness $d$ which has a barrier potential $U_0$. We show that in the thin barrier limit ($U_0 \to \infty$ and $d \to 0$ with…

The phase-dependent bound states (Andreev levels) of a Josephson junction can cross at the Fermi level, if the superconducting ground state switches between even and odd fermion parity. The level crossing is topologically protected, in the…

The polarizations of topological edge modes in the vicinity of optical Weyl points were numerically studied in chiral photonic crystals. We investigated two kinds of rotationally stacked woodpile structures in which planar rod arrays were…

Weyl semimetals and nodal line semimetals are characterized by linear band touching at zero-dimensional points and one-dimensional lines, respectively. We predict that a circularly polarized light drives nodal line semimetals into Weyl…

We present a study of "nodal semimetal" phases, in which non-degenerate conduction and valence bands touch at points (the "Weyl semimetal") or lines (the "line node semimetal") in three-dimensional momentum space. We discuss a general…

Starting from a microscopic model for the particle-particle interactions in a Weyl semimetal, we analyzed the possibility for conventional as well as monopole Cooper pairing between quasiparticle excitations at the same (intra-nodal) or…

Topological superconductivity holds promise for fault-tolerant quantum computing. While planar Josephson junctions are attractive candidates to realize this exotic state, direct phase-measurements as the fingerprint of the topological…

Recently a one-dimensional closed ladder of Josephson junctions has been studied (G. Cristofano et al., Phys. Lett. A 372 (2008) 2464) within a twisted conformal field theory (CFT) approach (G. Cristofano et al., Mod. Phys. Lett. A 15…

We study the spin transport through a 1D quantum Ising-XY-Ising spin link that emulates a topological superconducting-normal-superconducting structure via Jordan-Wigner (JW) transformation. We calculate, both analytically and numerically,…

We analyze the electrical characteristics of a circuit consisting of a free thin-film magnetic layer and source and drain electrodes that have opposite magnetization orientations along the free magnet's two hard directions. We find that…

Establishment of phase-coherence and a non-dissipative (super)current between two weakly coupled superconductors, known as the Josephson effect, plays a foundational role in basic physics and applications to metrology, precision sensing,…

Understanding correlation effects in topological phases of matter is at the forefront of current research in condensed matter physics. Here we try to clarify some subtleties in studying topological behaviors of interacting Weyl semimetals.…

We reveal the existence of a new type of topological Josephson effect involving type II superconductors and three-dimensional topological insulators as tunnel junctions. We predict that vortex lines induce a variant of the Witten effect…

Recently, the tunable Weyl-semimetal bands and the associate topological phase transition have been successfully simulated in superconducting quantum circuits [X. Tan, \textit{et al.} Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 122}, 010501 (2019)]. Since the…

Motivated by the exciting prediction of Multi-Weyl topological semimetals that are stabilized by point group symmetries [Phys. Rev. Lett. 108 (2012) 266802], we study tunneling phenomena for a class of anisotropic Multi-Weyl semimetals. We…

Multifold fermion systems feature free fermionic excitations, which have no counterparts in high-energy physics, and exhibit several unconventional properties. Using first-principles calculations, we predict that strain engineering can be…

We demonstrate a few unique dynamical properties of point-gap Weyl semimetal, an intrinsic non-Hermitian topological phase in three dimensions. We consider a concrete model where a pair of Weyl points reside on the imaginary axis of the…

Topology, like symmetry, is a fundamental concept in understanding general properties of physical systems. In condensed matter, nontrivial topology may manifest itself as singular features in the energy spectrum or the quantization of…

Triplet supercurrents in multilayer ferromagnetic Josephson junctions with misaligned magnetization can penetrate thicker ferromagnetic barriers compared to the singlet component. Although the static properties of these junctions have been…

We propose a CFT description for a closed one-dimensional fully frustrated ladder of quantum Josephson junctions with Mobius boundary conditions (see cond-mat/0503555; we show how such a system can develop topological order thanks to flux…
