Revealing temperature evolution of the Dirac band in ZrTe 5 via magnetoinfrared spectroscopy
Physical review(2023)
摘要
We report the temperature evolution of the Dirac band in semiconducting zirconium pentatelluride (ZrTe$_5$) using magneto-infrared spectroscopy. We find that the band gap is temperature independent at low temperatures and increases with temperature at elevated temperatures. Although such an observation seems to support a weak topological insulator phase at all temperatures and defy the previously reported topological phase transition (TPT) at an intermediate temperature in ZrTe$_5$, we show that it is also possible to explain the observation by considering the effect of conduction-valence band mixing and band inversion with a strong topological insulator phase at low temperatures. Our work provides an alternative picture of the band gap evolution across TPT.
