Broken symmetry and competing orders in Weyl semimetal interfaces
We consider interaction-induced broken symmetry states of two Weyl semimetal surfaces
with multiple Fermi-arc (FA) states. In the presence of inter-and intrasurface Coulomb …

Surface states and arcless angles in twisted Weyl semimetals
G Murthy, HA Fertig, E Shimshoni - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
Fermi arc states are features of Weyl semimetal (WSM) surfaces which are robust due to the
topological character of the bulk band structure. We demonstrate that Fermi arcs may …

Dipolar optical plasmon in thin-film Weyl semimetals
In a slab geometry with large surface-to-bulk ratio, topological surface states such as Fermi
arcs for Weyl or Dirac semimetals may dominate their low-energy properties. We investigate …

Zitterbewegung-mediated RKKY coupling in topological insulator thin films
The dynamics of itinerant electrons in topological insulator (TI) thin films is investigated
using a multi-band decomposition approach. We show that the electron trajectory in the 2D …
