摘要:

我们进行了电子能带结构和费米面的计算,以及测量的纵向电阻率rhoxx(T,H),霍尔电阻率rhoxy(T,H)和量子振荡的磁化强度作为温度的函数在不同的磁场与单斜晶体结构的MoO 2。能带结构计算表明,在忽略自旋轨道耦合的情况下,MoO 2是一种半金属结构。结果发现,在2 K和9 T下,大的磁阻达到5.03x10^4%,其接近二次场依赖性和场诱导的rhoxx(T)上转行为,许多拓扑非平凡以及平凡半金属的共同特征,也出现在MoO 2中。所观察到的属性归因于一个完美的电荷载流子补偿,证明了两个计算依赖于费米表面拓扑结构和霍尔电阻率测量。磁场沿电流方向的负磁电阻和de Haas-van Alphen测量中的非零Berry相的观察表明MoO 2中出现了Weyl点对,这可能是由于晶体对称性破缺所致。这些结果突出了MoO 2作为研究氧化物拓扑性质的新平台材料。

英文摘要:

We performed calculations of the electronic band structure and the Fermi surface as well as measured the longitudinal resistivity rhoxx(T,H), Hall resistivity rhoxy(T,H) and quantum oscillations of the magnetization as a function of temperature at various magnetic fields for MoO2 with monoclinic crystal structure. The band structure calculations show that MoO2 is a nodal-line semimetal when spin-orbit coupling is ignored. It was found that a large magnetoresistance reaching 5.03x10^4% at 2 K and 9 T, its nearly quadratic field dependence and a field-induced up-turn behavior of rhoxx(T), the characteristics common for many topologically non-trivial as well as trivial semimetals, emerge also in MoO2. The observed properties are attributed to a perfect charge-carrier compensation, evidenced by both calculations relying on the Fermi surface topology and the Hall resistivity measurements. Both the observation of negative magnetoresistance for magnetic field along the current direction and the non-zero Berry phase in de Haas-van Alphen measurements indicate that pairs of Weyl points appear in MoO2, which may be due to the crystal symmetry breaking. These results highlight MoO2 as a new platform materials for studying the topological properties of oxides.
