Article Synopsis
- The study introduces a simple method to determine the topological phase of the complex quantum material ZrTe without directly examining its band structure.
- Through low-temperature electrical and magnetotransport measurements, researchers observed weak antilocalization effects and Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, indicating the presence of multiple conducting channels.
- The findings suggest that bulk ZrTe crystals exhibit distinct transport properties, making them an exciting area for future research on quantum phases and transitions in three-dimensional quantum systems.
The quantum Hall (QH) effect is one of the most widely studied physical phenomenon in two dimensions. The plateau-plateau transition within this effect can be comprehensively described by the scaling theory, which encompasses three pivotal exponents: the critical exponent κ, the inelastic scattering exponent p, and the universal exponent γ. Prior studies have focused on measuring κ and estimating γ, assuming a constant p value of 2 across magnetic fields.
