In magnetic Weyl semimetals, fluctuations of the local magnetization may generate gauge fields that couple to the chiral charge of emergent Weyl fermions. Recent theoretical studies have proposed that the temporal and spatial-dependent magnetization associated with propagating domain walls (DWs) generates pseudo electric and magnetic fields that drive novel phenomena such as a current of real charge. Here we report a key step in testing these predictions: characterizing the propagation of DWs in the Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2 using scanning magneto-optic Kerr microscopy. We observe an unexpected deep minimum in the temperature dependence of the DW mobility, $mu$, indicating a crossover between two regimes of propagation. The nonmonotonic $mu(T)$ is evidence of a phase transition in the topology of the DW well below the Curie temperature, in which the magnetization texture changes from continuous rotation (elliptical wall) to a linear wall whose unidirectional magnetization passes through zero at the wall center.
Bulk-surface correspondence in Weyl semimetals assures the formation of topological Fermi-arc surface bands whose existence is guaranteed by bulk Weyl nodes. By investigating three distinct surface terminations of the ferromagnetic semimetal Co3Sn2S2
The physical realization of Chern insulators is of fundamental and practical interest, as they are predicted to host the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) and topologically protected chiral edge states which can carry dissipationless current. The
The spin-orbit coupling (SOC) lifts the band degeneracy that plays a vital role in the search for different topological states, such as topological insulators (TIs) and topological semimetals (TSMs). In TSMs, the SOC can partially gap a degenerate no
Topological Weyl semimetals (TWSs) are exotic crystals possessing emergent relativistic Weyl fermions connected by unique surface Fermi-arcs (SFAs) in their electronic structures. To realize the TWS state, certain symmetry (such as the inversion or t
Weyl semimetals are extraordinary systems where exotic phenomena such as Fermi arcs, pseudo-gauge fields and quantum anomalies arise from topological band degeneracy in crystalline solids for electrons and metamaterials for photons and phonons. On th
