Spin polarization and texture of the Fermi arcs in the Weyl Fermion semimetal TaAs

Su-Yang Xu, Ilya Belopolski, Daniel S. Sanchez +25

A Weyl semimetal is a new state of matter that host Weyl fermions as quasiparticle excitations. The Weyl fermions at zero energy correspond to points of bulk band degeneracy, Weyl…

Electrical transport in nano-thick ZrTe sheets: from three to two dimensions

Jingjing Niu, Jingyue Wang, Zhijie He +7

ZrTe is a newly discovered topological material. Shortly after a single layer ZrTe had been predicted to be a two-dimensional topological insulator, a handful of experiment…

Large Magnetoresistance over an Extended Temperature Regime in Monophosphides of Tantalum and Niobium

Chenglong Zhang, Cheng Guo, Hong Lu +5

We report extremely large magnetoresistance (MR) in an extended temperature regime from 1.5 K to 300 K in non-magnetic binary compounds TaP and NbP. TaP exhibits linear MR around $…

Magnetic tunneling induced Weyl node annihilation in TaP

Cheng-Long Zhang, Su-Yang Xu, C. M. Wang +20

Weyl nodes are topological objects in three-dimensional metals. Their topological property can be revealed by studying the high-field transport properties of a Weyl semimetal. Whil…
