Understand

Recently discovered Weyl semimetals (WSM) have found special place in topological condensed matter studies for they represent first example of massless Weyl fermions found in condensed matter systems.

A WSM shows gapless bulk energy spectra with Dirac-like point degeneracies, famously called Weyl nodes, which carry with themselves well defined chiralities and topologically protected chiral charges.
One finds the Berry curvature of the Bloch bands to become singular, like in a magnetic monopole, at these Weyl nodes.
Moreover, these systems feature topological surface states in the form of open Fermi arcs.
