Topological insulators and topological semimetals are both new classes of quantum
materials, which are characterized by surface states induced by the topology of the bulk …

In non-centrosymmetric superconductors, where the crystal structure lacks a centre of
inversion, parity is no longer a good quantum number and an electronic antisymmetric spin …

When both inversion and time-reversal symmetries are broken, the critical current of a
superconductor can be nonreciprocal. In this work, we show that, in certain classes of two …

Heusler compounds, initially discovered by Fritz Heusler more than a century ago, have
grown into a family of more than 1,000 compounds, synthesized from combinations of more …

A hallmark of the phase diagrams of quantum materials is the existence of multiple
electronic ordered states, which, in many cases, are not independent competing phases, but …

We report superconductivity and magnetism in a new family of topological semimetals, the
ternary half-Heusler compound R PdBi (R: rare earth). In this series, tuning of the rare earth f …

We theoretically consider the superconductivity of the topological half-Heusler semimetals
YPtBi and LuPtBi. We show that pairing occurs between j= 3/2 fermion states, which leads to …

Topological quantum materials represent a new class of matter with both exotic physical
phenomena and novel application potentials. Many Heusler compounds, which exhibit rich …

In all known fermionic superfluids, Cooper pairs are composed of spin-1/2 quasi-particles
that pair to form either spin-singlet or spin-triplet bound states. The “spin” of a Bloch electron …

Heusler compounds are a large group of intermetallic compounds with over 1000 members
with similar crystal structures having a vast array of tunable properties. These properties …
