Symmetry-protected ideal Weyl semimetal in HgTe-class materials
Ideal Weyl semimetals, similar to graphene, show peculiar features such as exotic electronic transport. Here, Ruan et al. predict that strain-tuned HgTe-class materials can become ideal Weyl semimetals, which could provide a promising platform to study emergent topological phenomena.
