A team of IDEALS physicists investigate the properties of magnetic Weyl semimetals

In a Nature Communications paper entitled Transport chirality generated by a tunable tilt of Weyl nodes in a van der Waals topological magnet, a team of physicists led by Lia Krusin-Elbaum present a novel technique that uses hydrogen cations (H) to manipulate relativistic electronic bandstructures in a magnetic Weyl semimetal - a topological material where electrons mimic massless particles called Weyl fermions.
