TL;DR: Nayaket et al. as mentioned in this paper revealed the existence of surface states of LaBi through the observation of three Dirac cones: two coexist at the corners and one appears at the centre of the Brillouin zone, by employing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy in conjunction with ab initio calculations.

TL;DR: In this Review, the most important developments in the field of spintronics are described from the point of view of materials science.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that around 50 Heusler compounds show band inversion similar to that of HgTe, and the topological state in these zero-gap semiconductors can be created by applying strain or by designing an appropriate quantum-well structure, similar to the case of hgTe. The properties can open new research directions in realizing the quantized anomalous Hall effect and topological superconductors.

TL;DR: In this paper, results of band structure calculations for Heusler compounds that have $A$ and $B$ sites occupied by transition metals and $C$ by a main group element are presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, results of ab initio band structure calculations for A2BC Heusler compounds that have A and B sites occupied by transition metals and C by a main group element are presented.
