Tailoring of Bandgap and Spin-Orbit Splitting in ZrSe2 with Low Substitution of Ti for Zr

Tuning the bandgap in layered transition metal dichalcogenides（TMDCs） is crucial for their versatile applications in many fields. The ternary formation is a viable method to tune the bandgap as well as other intrinsic properties of TMDCs, because the multi-elemental characteristics provide additional tunability at the atomic level and advantageously alter the physical properties of TMDCs. Herein, ternary Ti_xZr_1-xSe₂ single crystals were synthesized using the chem...

Measurement of the bulk and surface bands in Dirac line-node semimetal ZrSiS

Dirac semimetals are materials in which the conduction and the valence bands have robust crossing points protected by topology or symmetry. Recently, a new type of Dirac semimetals, so called the Dirac line-node semimetals(DLNSs), have attracted a lot of attention, as they host robust Dirac points along the one-dimensional(1D) lines in the Brillouin zone(BZ).In this work, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy(ARPES) and first-principles calculations, we systematically investigated the electronic structures of non-symmorphic ZrSiS crystal where we clearly distinguished the surface states from the bulk states. The photon-energy-dependent measurements further prove the existence of Dirac line node along the X-R direction. Remarkably, by in situ surface potassium doping, we clearly observed the different evolutions of the bulk and surface electronic states while proving the robustness of the Dirac line node. Our studies not only reveal the complete electronic structures of ZrSiS, but also demonstrate the method manipulating the electronic structure of the compound.     

Flat Band and Z2 Topology of Kagome Metal CsTi3Bi5

The simple kagome-lattice band structure possesses Dirac cones, flat band, and saddle point with van Hove singularities in the electronic density of states, facilitating the emergence of various electronic orders. Here we report a titanium-based kagome metal CsTi₃Bi₅ where titanium atoms form a kagome network, resembling its isostructural compound CsV₃Sb₅. Thermodynamic properties including the magnetization, resistance, and heat capacity reveal the co...
