Unconventional Photocurrents from Surface Fermi Arcs in Topological Chiral Semimetals

Journal Article Chang, Guoqing ; Yin, Jia-Xin ; Neupert, Titus ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The nonlinear optical responses from topological semimetals are crucial in both understanding the fundamental properties of quantum materials and designing next-generation light sensors or solar cells. However, previous work focused on the optical effects from bulk states only, disregarding the responses from topological surface states. Here, we propose a new surface-only photocurrent response from chiral Fermi arcs. Using the ideal topological chiral semimetal RhSi as a representative, we quantitatively compute the photogalvanic currents from Fermi arcs on different surfaces. By rigorous crystal symmetry analysis, we demonstrate that Fermi arc photogalvanic currents can be perpendicular to the bulk injection currents regardlessmore »« less

Fermi arc electronic structure and Chern numbers in the type-II Weyl semimetal candidate ${Mo}_{x} W_{1 - x} {Te}_{2}$

Journal Article Belopolski, Ilya ; Xu, Su-Yang ; Ishida, Yukiaki ; ... - Physical Review B

It has recently been proposed that electronic band structures in crystals can give rise to a previously overlooked type of Weyl fermion, which violates Lorentz invariance and, consequently, is forbidden in particle physics. It was further predicted that Mo _x W _{1 - x} Te ₂ may realize such a type-II Weyl fermion. Here, we first show theoretically that it is crucial to access the band structure above the Fermi level ε F to show a Weyl semimetal in Mo _x W _{1 - x} Te ₂ . Then, we study Mo x W _{1 - x} Te ₂ bymore »« less

Observation of Fermi arc surface states in a topological metal

Journal Article Xu, Su-Yang ; Liu, Chang ; Kushwaha, Satya K. ; ... - Science

Nailing down the topology of a semimetal Topological insulators are exotic materials that have a conducting surface state that can withstand certain types of material imperfection. Theoreticians have predicted a different kind of surface state in related three-dimensional topological Dirac semimetals, which do not have an energy gap in the band structure of the bulk. Xu et al. used photoemission spectroscopy to map out the band structure of the material Na ₃ Bi and detected the predicted surface state. Their results may lead to further insights into the physics of topological matter. Science , this issue p. 294

Fermi arcs vs. fermi pockets in electron-doped perovskite iridates

Journal Article He, Junfeng ; Hafiz, H. ; Mion, Thomas R. ; ... - Scientific Reports

We report on an angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) study of bulk electron-doped perovskite iridate, (Sr_1-xLa_x)₃Ir₂O₇. Fermi surface pockets are observed with a total electron count in keeping with that expected from La substitution. Depending on the energy and polarization of the incident photons, these pockets show up in the form of disconnected “Fermi arcs”, reminiscent of those reported recently in surface electron-doped Sr₂IrO₄. Our observed spectral variation is consistent with the coexistence of an electronic supermodulation with structural distortion in the system.
