Topological semimetals with double-helix nodal link
Wei Chen, Hai-Zhou Lu, Jing-Min Hou
Topological nodal line semimetals are characterized by the crossing of the conduction and valence bands along one or more closed loops in the Brillouin zone. Usually, these loops a…
Weyl semimetals in optical lattices: moving and merging of Weyl points, and hidden symmetry at Weyl points
Jing-Min Hou, Wei Chen
We propose to realize Weyl semimetals in a cubic optical lattice. We find that there exist three distinct Weyl semimetal phases in the cubic optical lattice for different parameter…
Moving and merging of Dirac points on a square lattice and hidden symmetry protection
Jing-Min Hou
First, we study a square fermionic lattice that supports the existence of massless Dirac fermions, where the Dirac points are protected by a hidden symmetry. We also consider two m…
Hidden-Symmetry-Protected Topological Semimetals on a Square Lattice
Jing-Min Hou
We study a two-dimensional fermionic square lattice, which supports the existence of two-dimensional Weyl semimetal, quantum anomalous Hall effect, and -flux topological semime…
Three-dimensional topological insulators in the octahedron-decorated cubic lattice
Jing-Min Hou, Wen-Xin Zhang, Guo-Xiang Wang
We investigate a tight-binding model of the octahedron-decorated cubic lattice with spin-orbit coupling. We calculate the band structure of the lattice and evaluate the Z_2 topolog…
