Topological surface Fermi arcs and the chiral anomaly in Weyl semimetal materials — •Binghai Yan — Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, Dresden

Topological Weyl semimetals represent a novel state of topological quantum matter, which not only possesses Weyl fermions (massless chiral particles that can be viewed as magnetic monopoles in momentum space) in the bulk and unique Fermi arcs generated by topological surface states, but also exhibits appealing physical properties such as extremely large magnetoresistance and ultra-high carrier mobility. In this talk, I will first present our recent theoretical [1] and ARPES [2,3] study on the topological surface states of transition-metal monopnictides, NbP, NbAs, TaP and TaAs. By visualizing the surface Fermi arcs, we discovered their Fermiology evolution with spin*orbit coupling strength. Further, we found a way to manipulate the Fermi arcs by the Lifshitz transition. I will also introduce our recent progress on the magneto-transport in the search for the chiral anomaly effect[4,5]. References: [1] Y. Sun, S. C. Wu, and B. Yan, Phys. Rev. B 92, 115428 (2015).
