Strongly-correlated topological semiconductors — •Stanislav Chadov1, Claudia Felser1, Leon Petit2, Hubert Ebert3, and Jan Minár31MPI-CPFS Dresden — 2STFC Daresbury Laboratory, UK — 3LMU München

Using the fully-relativistic Green’s function formalism we analyze the electronic structure topology in series of the heavy rock-salt type semiconductors PuX, SmX (X=Te, Se, S). Due to the partial filling of their f-shells, these materials exhibit strong dynamical correlations which destroy the Bloch-like eigenstates. Thus, the usual analysis based on the symmetry of the eigenstates cannot be applied. Here we recall the adiabatic approach, which allows to analyze the topology based on a purely bulk information disregarding the Bloch or localized character of the electronic states. The dynamical correlations were treated within the DMFT scheme implemented in the framework of the SPR-KKR Green’s function method.
