Topological phase diagram of strained alloys ( alloy concentration, strain). The phases are indicated by colors: strong topological insulator (STI) with mirror Chern number (red), STI with (green), Weyl semimetal (WSM I & WSM II, grey), and normal semimetal (blue).
Weyl semimetal phase WSM II in tensile strained HgTe (). (a) Ab initio KKR band structure along the line showing a band gap between the topmost valence and lowest conductance bands. (b) Width of the band gap in the plane with , indicated as color scale (black: , white: ; TB calculation). Four Weyl points are marked by green dots.
