[0053] Example 3, Cu 2 HgSnSe 4 Energy Band Calculation of Dirac Semimetal Properties in Crystals

[0054] By first principles, we calculated the Cu prepared in Examples 1 and 2 2 HgSnSe 4 The energy band structure of the crystal, the result is as follows figure 1 As shown, its conduction band and valence band are asymmetric, and only Dirac fermions exist in the conduction band, while Schrödinger fermions and Dirac fermions coexist in the valence band. If the Fermi energy is located in the conduction band, the transport properties mainly come from Dirac fermions. Such a system will help us to obtain relatively clean transport experimental data, so that we can explore novel transport properties of topological quantum states. At the same time, the linear dispersion relationship of electrons near the Dirac point is maintained in the energy range of about 400mV, and the Dirac cone band structure of linear dispersion has a nonlinear response to light waves in a wide range of ...

Abstract

The invention discloses an ideal Dirac semimetal Cu2HgSnSe4 crystal. The Cu2HgSnSe4 crystal is characterized in that the Cu2HgSnSe4 crystal belongs to a tetragonal system; the space group of the crystal is (No. 121); and a conduction band and a valence band of the Cu2HgSnSe4 crystal are asymmetric in an energy band structure diagram, only Dirac fermion exists in the conduction band, and Schrodinger fermion and the Dirac fermion coexist in the valence band. If Fermi energy is located in the conduction band, transport properties are mainly derived from the Dirac fermion. Such a system is helpfulfor people to obtain relatively clean transportation experiment data, so the novel transportation property of a topological quantum state can be explored. Meanwhile, the linear dispersion relation ofelectrons near a Dirac point is always kept within the energy range of about 400 mV, and a Dirac cone energy band structure of linear dispersion has large-range frequency nonlinear response to lightwaves. The crystal has important academic value and potential application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new materials and crystal growth, in particular to an ideal Dirac semimetal Cu 2 HgSnSe 4 Crystals and their growth methods and applications. Background technique [0002] In the past ten years, a major breakthrough in condensed matter physics has been to introduce the mathematical topology principle into the basic theory of physics, and to construct the theory of topological phase transition and topological phase of matter. The study of the topological properties of matter has become an important direction in the research of condensed matter physics and materials science. From this, a brand new concept-topological quantum material is derived. Due to the unique topological properties of the electronic structure, topological quantum materials can exhibit various quantum effects at the macro scale, so they have been widely concerned and studied by many researchers. Since the discovery of two-dimensional...
