Transport properties of topological semimetal candidate ReSbTe (Re = Sm, Nd, Pr)

ORAL

Abstract

The breakthrough in the discovery of topological semimetals provides opportunities to explore the exotic properties of relativistic fermions in condensed matter. Recently, the nonsymmorphic compound ReSbTe (Re = rare earth) has attracted interested owing to its non-trivial topological electronic state. Here we present the magnetic transport properties of these topological semimetal candidates that uncovers it’s electronic and magnetic properties. The coupling of magnetism and electronic properties, plus the variation of magnetism for different rare earth compound, make this material family a tunable platform for investigating topological fermion physics and for further exploration of electronic and spintronic science and applications
