Low-Frequency Divergence and Quantum Geometry of the Bulk Photovoltaic Effect in Topological Semimetals
We study the low-frequency properties of the bulk photovoltaic effect in topological semimetals. The bulk photovoltaic effect is a nonlinear optical effect that generates dc photocurrents under uniform irradiation, which is allowed by noncentrosymmetry. It is a promising mechanism for a terahertz ph...
