High-dimensional disorder-driven phenomena in Weyl semimetals, semiconductors, and related systems

SV Syzranov, L Radzihovsky - Annual Review of Condensed …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
It is commonly believed that a noninteracting disordered electronic system can undergo only
the Anderson metal-insulator transition. It has been suggested, however, that a broad class …

Optical and transport properties in three-dimensional Dirac and Weyl semimetals

CJ Tabert, JP Carbotte, EJ Nicol - Physical Review B, 2016 - APS
Within a Kubo formalism, we study dc transport and ac optical properties of 3D Dirac and
Weyl semimetals. Emphasis is placed on the approach to charge neutrality and on the …

Global phase diagram of a dirty Weyl liquid and emergent superuniversality

B Roy, RJ Slager, V Juričić - Physical Review X, 2018 - APS
Pursuing complementary field-theoretic and numerical methods, we here paint the global
phase diagram of a three-dimensional dirty Weyl system. The generalized Harris criterion …

Semiclassical Boltzmann transport theory for multi-Weyl semimetals

S Park, S Woo, EJ Mele, H Min - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
Multi-Weyl semimetals (m-WSMs) are a new type of Weyl semimetal that have linear
dispersion along one symmetry direction but anisotropic nonlinear dispersion along the two …

Transversal magnetoresistance in Weyl semimetals

J Klier, IV Gornyi, AD Mirlin - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We explore theoretically the magnetoresistivity of three-dimensional Weyl and Dirac
semimetals in transversal magnetic fields within two alternative models of disorder:(i) short …

Large contribution of Fermi arcs to the conductivity of topological metals

M Breitkreiz, PW Brouwer - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
Surface-state contributions to the dc conductivity of most homogeneous metals exposed to
uniform electric fields are usually as small as the system size is large compared to the lattice …

Conductivity of a Weyl semimetal with donor and acceptor impurities

YI Rodionov, SV Syzranov - Physical Review B, 2015 - APS
We study transport in a Weyl semimetal with donor and acceptor impurities. At sufficiently
high temperatures transport is dominated by electron-electron interactions, while the low …

Quantitative analytical theory for disordered nodal points

B Sbierski, KA Madsen, PW Brouwer, C Karrasch - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
Disorder effects are especially pronounced around nodal points in linearly dispersing band
structures as present in graphene or Weyl semimetals. Despite the enormous experimental …

Quantum magnetoresistance of Weyl semimetals with strong Coulomb disorder

YI Rodionov, KI Kugel, BA Aronzon - Physical Review B, 2023 - APS
We study the effects of strong Coulomb disorder on the transverse magnetoresistance in
Weyl semimetals at low temperatures. Using the diagrammatic technique and the Keldysh …

Disordered fermionic quantum critical points

H Yerzhakov, J Maciejko - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We study the effect of quenched disorder on the semimetal-superconductor quantum phase
transition in a model of two-dimensional Dirac semimetal with N flavors of two-component …
