Giant Chern number of a Weyl nodal surface without upper limit

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang

Weyl nodes can be classified into zero-dimensional (0D) Weyl points, 1D Weyl nodal lines, and 2D Weyl nodal surfaces (WNS), which possess finite Chern numbers. Up to date, the largest Chern number of WPs identified in Weyl semimetals is 4, which is thought ...

Phase transition of layer-stacked borophene under pressure

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Xiao Dong

The 8-Pmmn borophene, a boron analog of graphene, hosts tilted and anisotropic massless Dirac fermion quasiparticles owing to the presence of a distorted graphenelike sublattice. First-principles calculations show that stacked 8-Pmmn borophene is transform ...

Transport signatures of temperature-induced chemical potential shift and Lifshitz transition in layered type-II Weyl semimetal TaIrTe4

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Meng Yang

Temperature-induced Lifshitz transitions have been identified in several materials. Their chemical potential shows a substantial shift with changing temperature. The common feature of these materials is the coexistence of electron and hole pockets in the v ...

Temperature dependence of quantum oscillations from non-parabolic dispersions

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Chunyu Guo, Amelia Emily-Kay Estry

A versatile methodology to detect topological quasiparticles by transport measurements remains an open problem. Here, the authors propose and experimentally observe the temperature dependence of the quantum oscillation frequency as a signature of non-trivi ...

Extremely large magnetoresistance in the "ordinary" metal ReO3

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang, Huancheng Chen

The extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR) observed in many topologically nontrivial and trivial semimetals has attracted much attention in relation to its underlying physical mechanism. In this paper, by combining the band structure and Fermi surface (FS ...

Origin of large magnetoresistance in the topological nonsymmorphic semimetal TaSe3

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang, Daniel Gosalbez Martinez, Michele Puppin, Helmuth Berger, Alberto Crepaldi, Gabriel Albert Autes, Gianmarco Gatti

TaSe3 is a layered van der Waals semimetal with several inverted band gaps throughout the entire Brillouin zone and nontrivial Z(2) topological indices, which place it at the boundary between a strong and a weak topological phase. Our transport experiments ...

Observation of a singular Weyl point surrounded by charged nodal walls in PtGa

Oleg Yazyev, Jan Hugo Dil, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang

Constrained by the Nielsen-Ninomiya no-go theorem, in all so-far experimentally determined Weyl semimetals (WSMs) the Weyl points (WPs) always appear in pairs in the momentum space with no exception. As a consequence, Fermi arcs occur on surfaces which con ...

Landau Levels as a Probe for Band Topology in Graphene Moire Superlattices

Oleg Yazyev, Quansheng Wu, Yifei Guan

We propose Landau levels as a probe for the topological character of electronic bands in two-dimensional moire superlattices. We consider two configurations of twisted double bilayer graphene (TDBG) that have very similar band structures, but show differen ...

Unidirectional Kondo scattering in layered NbS2

László Forró, Oleg Yazyev, Christoph Koch, Quansheng Wu, Shengnan Zhang, Helmuth Berger, Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Edoardo Martino, Konstantin Semeniuk

Crystalline defects can modify quantum interactions in solids, causing unintuitive, even favourable, properties such as quantum Hall effect or superconducting vortex pinning. Here we present another example of this notion-an unexpected unidirectional Kondo ...
