High-throughput screening of Weyl semimetals

Nicola Marzari, Davide Campi, Davide Grassano

Topological Weyl semimetals represent a novel class of nontrivial materials, where band crossings with linear dispersions take place at generic momenta across reciprocal space. These crossings give rise to low -energy properties akin to those of Weyl fermi ...

Magnon-phonon interactions enhance the gap at the Dirac point in the spin-wave spectra of CrI3 two-dimensional magnets

Iurii Timrov

Recent neutron-diffraction experiments in honeycomb CrI3 quasi-2D ferromagnets have evinced the existence of a gap at the Dirac point in their spin-wave spectra. The existence of this gap has been attributed to strong in-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya or Kita ...

Complementary screening for quantum spin Hall insulators in two-dimensional exfoliable materials

Nicola Marzari, Davide Campi, Antimo Marrazzo, Davide Grassano

Quantum spin Hall insulators are a class of topological materials that has been extensively studied during the past decade. One of their distinctive features is the presence of a finite band gap in the bulk and gapless, topologically protected edge states ...

Possible restoration of particle-hole symmetry in the 5/2-quantized Hall state at small magnetic field

Frédéric Mila, Loïc Jean Pierre Herviou

Motivated by the experimental observation of a quantized 5/2 thermal conductance at filling nu = 5/2, a result incompatible with both the Pfaffian and the anti-Pfaffian states, we have pushed the expansion of the effective Hamiltonian of the 5/2-quantized ...
