Here we study the single-particle, electronic transport and optical properties of a gapped system described by a simple two-band Hamiltonian with inverted valence bands. We analyze its properties in the three-dimensional (3D) and the two-dimensional (2D) case. The insulating phase changes into a metallic phase when the band gap is set to zero. The metallic phase in the 3D case is characterized by a nodal surface. This nodal surface is equivalent to a nodal ring in two dimensions. Within a simple theoretical framework, we calculate the density of state, the total and effective charge carrier concentration, the Hall concentration and the Hall coefficient, for both 2D and 3D cases. The main result is that the three concentrations always differ from one another in the present model. These concentrations can then be used to resolve the nature of the electronic ground state. Similarly, the optical conductivity is calculated and discussed for the insulating phase. We show that there are no optical excitations in the metallic phase. Finally, we compare the calculated optical conductivity with the rule-of-thumb derivation using the joint density of states.
We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of ternary pnictide CaAuAs which is predicted to be a three-dimensional topological Dirac semimetal (TDS). By accurately determining the bulk-band structure, we have revealed
Previously known three-dimensional Dirac semimetals (DSs) occur in two types -- topological DSs and nonsymmorphic DSs. Here we present a novel three-dimensional DS that exhibits both features of the topological and nonsymmorphic DSs. We introduce a m
The optical properties of (001)-oriented NbP single crystals have been studied in a wide spectral range from 6 meV to 3 eV from room temperature down to 10 K. The itinerant carriers lead to a Drude-like contribution to the optical response; we can fu
We theoretically examine the effect of carrier-carrier scattering processes (electron-hole and electron-electron) on the intraband radiation absorption and their contribution to the net dynamic conductivity in optically or electrically pumped graphen
Using state-of-the-art many-body Greens function calculations based on the GW plus cumulant approach, we analyze the properties of plasmon satellites in the electron spectral function resulting from electron-plasmon interactions in one-, two- and thr
