Description
Wey semimetal is an interesting class of topological materials that harbors chiral fermions as the low energy excitations. In this talk, I will give a comprehensive review of the Weyl semimetallic phase. Starting from exotic transport and experimental phenomena of such matter, I will discuss the dimensional hierarchy and the relation with the topological insulator phase in higher-dimensions. Finally, I will introduce the recent progress in the fields of topological semimetals that attempt to generalize the concept of Weyl fermions.
