Outline

The purpose of this project is to establish a basic method for controlling relativistic electrons in topological semimetals by means of the material development and/or application of external fields. Moreover, the project also aims to build a new framework of thermoelectric phenomena in solids by searching unconventional thermoelectric/spin electric phenomena of Dirac/Weyl electrons. In this way, we try to find a guiding principle to design new materials with a high thermoelectric figure of merit.
