Abstract
We report discovery of antiferromagnetic semimetal , obtained and studied in the form of single crystals. Electric resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity indicate antiferromagnetic order of Eu with = 20 K. The effective moment of inferred from the magnetization and specific heat measurement is 3.5 , smaller than the theoretical value of due to presence of both and . Magnetic-field-dependent resistivity measurements suggest dominant quasi-two-dimensional Fermi surfaces whereas the first-principle calculations point to the presence of Dirac fermions. Therefore, could represent the first platform to study the interplay of dynamical charge fluctuations, localized magnetic moments, and Dirac states with Sb orbital character.
