Systematic display of the spin splitting in band structures of representative altermagnetic crystals

In this work we demonstrate a novel approach to exhibit the unique spin splitting that is typical of collinear altermagnets.

In this work we demonstrate a novel approach to exhibit the unique spin splitting that is typical of collinear altermagnets. This approach is to plot band structures on Brillouin zone paths that sample general k-points to show a representative picture that corresponds to…
