Publication High-Throughput Calculations of Magnetic Topological Materials
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-10-28) Xu, Yuanfeng; Elcoro, Luis; Song, Zhi-Da; Wieder, Benjamin J.; Vergniory, M. G.; Regnault, Nicolas; Chen, Yulin; Felser, Claudia; Bernevig, B. AndreiUsing magnetic band theory and topological indices obtained from Magnetic Topological Quantum Chemistry (MTQC), we have performed the first high-throughput calculations of 549 magnetic topological materials and have discovered 130 magnetic enforced semimetals and topological insulators, thereby enhancing by a factor of 10 the number of known magnetic topological materials. We use as our starting-point the Bilbao Magnetic Material Database, containing 549 non-ferromagnetic compounds whose magnetic structure and symmetry group have been painstakingly deduced from neutron-scattering experiments. This knowledge is crucial for correct {\it ab initio} calculations of the materials' band structure, which we have performed for each of those compounds - including complete phase diagrams at different values of Hubbard potential in LDA+U. Using an in-house code to be made publicly available for finding the magnetic co-representations at high symmetry points, we then feed this data into the topological machinery of MTQC to determine the topological materials, as well as the obstructed atomic limits. We then pick several candidates for showcasing new topological physics and analyze the topological trends in the materials upon varying interactions.
