Magnetic field tuning of valley population in the Weyl phase of
Nd 2 Ir 2 O
Physical Review Research(2022)
摘要
The frustrated magnet ${\mathrm{Nd}}_{2}{\mathrm{Ir}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{7}$, where strong correlations together with spin-orbit coupling play a crucial role, is predicted to be a Weyl semimetal and to host topological pairs of bulk Dirac-like valleys. Here we use an external magnetic field to manipulate the localized rare-earth 4f moments coupled to the 5d electronic bands. Low-energy optical spectroscopy reveals that a field of only a few teslas suffices to create charge-compensating pockets of holes and electrons in different regions of momentum space, thus introducing a valley population shift that can be tuned with the field.
