摘要:

石墨烯是一种二维(2D)碳片,其电子结构的狄拉克点性质具有可忽略的自旋轨道耦合,从而获得了许多令人惊叹的特性。延伸到3D空间,具有负曲率的石墨烯网络,称为Mackay-Terrones晶体(MTC),已经被提出并进行了实验探索,但其拓扑性质仍有待发现。基于第一性原理计算,我们报道了一个具有拓扑非平凡电子态的全碳MTC,并展示了整体的节点线。当节点线投影到表面上形成圆时,形成了位于圆内部的“鼓面”状平坦表面带。在没有反演对称性的情况下,体节点线可以演化为三维狄拉克点,这在最近的实验中已经表明了它的存在。

英文摘要:

Graphene, a two dimensional (2D) carbon sheet, acquires many of its amazing properties from the Dirac point nature of its electronic structures with negligible spin-orbit coupling. Extending to 3D space, graphene networks with negative curvature, called Mackay-Terrones crystals (MTC), have been proposed and experimentally explored, yet their topological properties remain to be discovered. Based on the first-principle calculations, we report an all-carbon MTC with topologically non-trivial electronic states by exhibiting node-lines in bulk. When the node-lines are projected on to surfaces to form circles, "drumhead" like flat surface bands nestled inside of the circles are formed. The bulk node-line can evolve into 3D Dirac point in the absence of inversion symmetry, which has shown its plausible existence in recent experiments.
