From: Exhaustive screening of high-fold degenerate topological semimetal with chiral structure

Fig. 1

The chiral crystal structures are loaded from the Material Project after removing the compounds containing strongly correlated f-electrons. Based on density functional theory, the nonmagnetic metals or semimetals are screened. By calculating the Chern number, we search the high-fold degenerate points around the Fermi level to confirm the topological metals or semimetals.
