Discovery of a three-dimensional topological Dirac semimetal, Na3Bi.
Three-dimensional (3D) topological Dirac semimetals (TDSs) represent an unusual state of quantum matter that can be viewed as "3D graphene." In contrast to 2D Dirac fermions in graphene or on the surface of 3D topological insulators, TDSs possess 3D Dirac fermions in the bulk. By investigating the electronic structure of Na3Bi with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we detected 3D Dirac...
متن کاملSpatial charge inhomogeneity and defect states in topological Dirac semimetal thin films of Na3Bi
Topological Dirac semimetals (TDSs) are three-dimensional analogs of graphene, with carriers behaving like massless Dirac fermions in three dimensions. In graphene, substrate disorder drives fluctuations in Fermi energy, necessitating construction of heterostructures of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) to minimize the fluctuations. Three-dimensional TDSs obviate the substrate and sho...
متن کاملthe search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
15 صفحه اولEvidence for trivial Berry phase and absence of chiral anomaly in semimetal NbP
The discovery of Weyl semimetals (WSM) has brought forth the condensed matter realization of Weyl fermions, which were previously theorized as low energy excitations in high energy particle physics. Recently, transition metal mono-pnictides are under intense investigation for understanding properties of inversion-symmetry broken Weyl semimetals. Non-trivial Berry phase and chirality are importa...
متن کاملDirac Spectrum , Axial Anomaly and the QCD Chiral Phase Transition ∗
The QCD phase transition is studied on 16 and 32 × 4 lattices both with and without quark loops. We introduce a new zero-flavor or quenched species of quark ζ and study the resulting chiral condensate, 〈ζ̄ζ〉 as a function of the ζ mass, mζ . By examining 〈ζ̄ζ〉 for 10 −10 ≤ mζ ≤ 10 we gain considerable information about the spectrum of Dirac eigenvalues. A comparison of ma = 0.01 and 0.025 shows l...
