Chemical-pressure effect on the optical conductivity of topological nodal-line semimetals of ZrSiS type — •Markus Krottenmüller1, Jihaan Ebad-Allah1,2, Juan Fernandez Afonso3, Zhiqiang Mao4, Jan Kunes3,5, and Christine Kuntscher11Experimentalphysik II, Universität Augsburg, 86159 Augsburg, Germany — 2Department of Physics, Tanta University, 31527 Tanta, Egypt — 3Institute of Solid State Physics, TU Wien, 1020 Vienna, Austria — 4Department of Physics and Engineering Physics, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA 70118, USA — 5Institute of Physics, The Czeck Academy of Sciences, 18221 Praha, Czech Republic

ZrSiS is a prototype nodal-line semimetal, whose electronic band structure contains a diamond-shaped nodal line. We studied the optical conductivity of ZrSiS and other members of the compound family ZrXY with X=Si, Ge and Y =S, Se, Te by reflectivity measurements over a broad frequeny range. The optical conductivity spectrum of ZrSiS has a distinct U-shape, ending at a sharp high-energy peak. Other ZrXY compounds have a very similar profile of the optical conductivity, except ZrSiTe. We will discuss our findings in terms of the theoretical optical conductivity obtained by density functional theory calculations.
