Intertwined Rashba, Dirac, and Weyl Fermions in Hexagonal Hyperferroelectrics.
By means of density functional theory based calculations, we study the role of spin-orbit coupling in the new family of ABC hyperferroelectrics [Garrity, Rabe, and Vanderbilt Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 127601 (2014)]. We unveil an extremely rich physics strongly linked to ferroelectric properties, ranging from the electric control of bulk Rashba effect to the existence of a three-dimensional topolog...
متن کاملBeyond Dirac and Weyl Fermions
An international team of researchers has predicted the existence of several previously unknown types of quantum particles in materials. The particles— which belong to the class of particles known as fermions—can be distinguished by several intrinsic properties, such as their responses to applied magnetic and electric fields. In several cases, fermions in the interior of the material show their ...
متن کاملPhenomenology of a semi-Dirac semi-Weyl semimetal
We extend the semiclassical study of fermionic particle-hole symmetric semi-Dirac (more appropriately, semiDirac semi-Weyl) dispersion of quasiparticles, εK = ± √ (k2 x/2m) + (vky)) = ±ε0 √ K4 x +K2 y in dimensionless units, discovered computationally in oxide heterostructures by Pardo and collaborators. This unique system is a highly anisotropic sister phase of both (symmetric) graphene and wh...
متن کاملNew type of Weyl semimetal with quadratic double Weyl fermions.
Weyl semimetals have attracted worldwide attention due to their wide range of exotic properties predicted in theories. The experimental realization had remained elusive for a long time despite much effort. Very recently, the first Weyl semimetal has been discovered in an inversion-breaking, stoichiometric solid TaAs. So far, the TaAs class remains the only Weyl semimetal available in real mater...
متن کاملDirac and Weyl superconductors in three dimensions.
We introduce the concept of three-dimensional Dirac (Weyl) superconductors (SC), which have protected bulk fourfold (twofold) nodal points and surface Majorana arcs at zero energy. We provide a sufficient criterion for realizing them in centrosymmetric SCs with odd-parity pairing and mirror symmetry. Pairs of Dirac nodes appear in a mirror-invariant plane when the mirror winding number is nontr...
