Altermagnetism exhibits zero net magnetization and spin-splitting electronic structure. The interplay between altermagnetism and topological physics becomes an important topic in the condensed matter physics. In this letter, we propose that the altermagnet Ce4Sb3 hosts Dirac fermions through first-principles calculations and tight-binding model analysis. When subjected to external magnetic field, the altermagnet Ce4Sb3 change from altermagnetic state to ferromagnetic state. Accompanied with magnetic order transition, the four-fold degenerate Dirac points are transited into sextuple degenerate points. Especially, spin-orbital coupling effect has little influence about the Dirac fermions. The topological phases in the altermagnetic state may hold the exotic spin-splitter torque and remarkable nonlinear transport effect. Our work paves the way for exploring the interplay between altermagnetism and non-trivial topological phase.

Pressure-induced phase switching of the Shubnikov de Haas oscillations in molecular Dirac fermion system $α-$(BETS)$_{2}$I$_{3}$
本文报道了1.7 K时准二维分子导体$α-$(BETS)$_{2}$ I $_{3}$ [BETS:bis(ethylenedithio)tetraselenafulvalene]在聚酰亚胺薄膜上的Shubnikov de Haas(SdH)振荡。从SdH相因子,我们实验验证了该材料在压力下是在狄拉克费米子相。$α-$(BETS)$_{2}$ I $_{3}$处于强关联绝缘相和狄拉克费米子相之间的相变附近,是常压分子狄拉克费米子系统的可能候选者。然而,SdH振荡表明,Berry相在环境压力下为零。在压力下,当金属-绝缘体交叉几乎被抑制在$\sim$ 0.5 GPa时,出现$π$ Berry相。结果对比的先驱分子狄拉克费米子系统$α-$(BEDT-TTF)$_{2}$ I $_{3}$ [BEDT-TTF:双(亚乙基二硫代)四硫富瓦烯]狄拉克费米子和半导体行为同时观察。
