Helical Fermi arcs and surface states in time-reversal invariant Weyl semimetals

Helical Fermi arcs and surface states in time-reversal invariant Weyl semimetals

Weyl semimetals are gapless three-dimensional topological materials where two bands touch at an even number of points in the Brillouin zone. In this work we study a zinc-blende lattice model realizing a time-reversal invariant Weyl semimetal. The bulk dynamics is described by 12 helical Weyl nodes. Surface states form a …
