Negative magnetoresistance in Dirac semimetal Cd3As2

Materials with topologically non-trivial band structures promise applications exploiting exotic electronic transport behaviour. Here, the authors observe a large negative magnetoresistance in Cd3As2nanoribbons, evidence for a chiral transport anomaly required for its status as a Dirac semi metal.
