Prediction of nodal-line semimetals in two-dimensional black phosphorous films

Abstract Semimetals are a new kind of quantum materials, in which the conduction and valence bands cross each other near the Fermi level. Based on density-functional theory calculations and symmetry analysis, we propose nodal-line semimetals in layered stacked black phosphorus (BP) films which are d...
