Existence of nodal-arc and its evolution into Weyl-nodes in the presence of spin-orbit coupling in TaAs & TaP

Vivek Pandey, Sudhir K. Pandey

In this work, we report the existence of nodal-arc, which acts as the building block of all the nodal-rings in TaAs & TaP. This nodal-arc is found to be capable of generating all t…
