Discovery of a new type of topological Weyl fermion semimetal state in MoWTe

Ilya Belopolski, Daniel S. Sanchez, Yukiaki Ishida +23

The recent discovery of a Weyl semimetal in TaAs offers the first Weyl fermion observed in nature and dramatically broadens the classification of topological phases. However, in Ta…

Atomic-scale visualization of quasiparticle interference on a type-II Weyl semimetal surface

Hao Zheng, Guang Bian, Guoqing Chang +15

We combine quasiparticle interference simulation (theory) and atomic resolution scanning tunneling spectro-microscopy (experiment) to visualize the interference patterns on a type-…

Measuring Chern numbers above the Fermi level in the Type II Weyl semimetal MoWTe

Ilya Belopolski, Su-Yang Xu, Yukiaki Ishida +30

It has recently been proposed that electronic band structures in crystals give rise to a previously overlooked type of Weyl fermion, which violates Lorentz invariance and, conseque…

Theoretical prediction of magnetic and noncentrosymmetric Weyl fermion semimetal states in the R-Al-X family of compounds (R=rare earth, Al=aluminium, X=Si, Ge)

Guoqing Chang, Bahadur Singh, Su-Yang Xu +18

Weyl semimetals are novel topological conductors that host Weyl fermions as emergent quasiparticles. While the Weyl fermions in high-energy physics are strictly defined as the mass…
