Far infrared magneto-transmission spectroscopy has been used to probe relativistic fermions in highly oriented pyrolytic and natural graphite. Nearly identical transmission spectra of those two materials are obtained, giving the signature of Dirac fermions via absorption lines with an energy that scales as sqrt{B}. The Fermi velocity is evaluated to be c*=1.02x10^6 m/s and the pseudogap at the H point is estimated to be below 10 meV.

We report on far infrared magneto-transmission measurements on a thin graphite sample prepared by exfoliation of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite. In magnetic field, absorption lines exhibiting a blue-shift proportional to sqrtB are observed. This
is a fingerprint for massless Dirac holes at the H point in bulk graphite. The Fermi velocity is found to be c*=1.02x10^6 m/s and the pseudogap at the H point is estimated to be below 10 meV. Although the holes behave to a first approximation as a strictly 2D gas of Dirac fermions, the full 3D band structure has to be taken into account to explain all the observed spectral features.
We report on magneto-optical studies of Bi2Se3, a representative member of the 3D topological insulator family. Its electronic states in bulk are shown to be well described by a simple Dirac-type Hamiltonian for massive particles with only two parame
ters: the fundamental bandgap and the band velocity. In a magnetic field, this model implies a unique property - spin splitting equal to twice the cyclotron energy: Es = 2Ec. This explains the extensive magneto-transport studies concluding a fortuitous degeneracy of the spin and orbital split Landau levels in this material. The Es = 2Ec match differentiates the massive Dirac electrons in bulk Bi2Se3 from those in quantum electrodynamics, for which Es = Ec always holds.
Magneto-transmission of a thin layer of bulk graphite is compared with spectra taken on multilayer epitaxial graphene prepared by thermal decomposition of a SiC crystal. We focus on the spectral features evolving as sqrt{B}, which are evidence for th
e presence of Dirac fermions in both materials. Whereas the results on multi-layer epitaxial graphene can be interpreted within the model of 2D Dirac fermions, the data obtained on bulk graphite can only be explained taking into account the 3D nature of graphite, e.g. by using the standard Slonczewski-Weiss-McClure model.
Macroscopic concentration of massless charge carriers with linear conic spectrum - Dirac Fermions (DF) - was shown in 2004 to exist in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and governs its electronic properties. These carriers can have the same n
ature as DF observed in graphite monolayer(graphene) and let to view HOPG as superposition of 2D carbon layers, almost independent electronically. We overview here the recent experimental evidences of 2D DF in graphite and their similarity with carriers in graphene.
Magneto-transmission measurements in magnetic fields in the range B=20-60T have been performed to probe the H and K-point Landau level transitions in natural graphite. At the H-point, two series of transitions, whose energy evolves as $sqrt{B}$ are o
bserved. A reduced Slonczewski, Weiss and McClure (SWM) model with only two parameters to describe the intra-layer (gamma0) and inter-layer (gamma1) coupling correctly describes all observed transitions. Polarization resolved measurements confirm that the observed apparent splitting of the H-point transitions at high magnetic field cannot be attributed to an asymmetry of the Dirac cone.
