Conductance oscillation in surface junctions of Weyl semimetals

Abstract: Fermi arc surface states, the manifestation of the bulk-edge correspondence in Weyl semimetals, have attracted much research interest. In contrast to the conventional Fermi loop, the disconnected Fermi arcs provide an exotic two-dimensional (2D) system for exploration of novel physical effects on the surface of Weyl semimetals. Here, we propose that visible conductance oscillation can be achieved in planar junctions fabricated on the surface of a Weyl semimetal with a pair of Fermi arcs. It is shown that Fabry… Show more

“…In particular, the topological Lifshitz transition [55] of FAs can be induced by surface decoration [53] or chemical potential modification, [54] which changes the sizes and shapes of the FAs, and especially, the way they connect pairs of Weyl nodes. The existing experiments show that FAs with different configurations can be realized in different samples, [52][53][54][56][57][58][59] but whether it is possible to continuously modify the FAs in a given sample remains an open question. It is of great interest to explore the possibility of manipulating FAs by external fields, in which both continuous deformation and abrupt Lifshitz transition of the FAs can be achieved.…”
