Deskripsi

A sufficiently strong magnetic field drives an electron system into the so-called extreme quantum limit. Zhang et al. demonstrate that in this regime, a Dirac semimetal acquires a robust plateau in the thermoelectric Hall conductivity, with a value independent of magnetic field or electron concentration.
