AlterSeeK-Path: Systematic construction of generalized band-structure paths for displaying altermagnetic spin splitting

Altermagnetic materials exhibit spin splitting in their electronic band structures while maintaining zero net magnetization.

Altermagnetic materials exhibit spin splitting in their electronic band structures while maintaining zero net magnetization. However, conventional high-symmetry k-paths generally hide this splitting because they follow symmetry lines that in most cases enforce spin degeneracy.…
