Dislocation defect as a bulk probe of monopole charge of multi-Weyl semimetals

Multi-Weyl semimetals feature band crossings with the dispersion that is, in general, linear in only one direction, and as a consequence their band structure is characterized by the monopole charge n which can be greater than one. We show that a single screw dislocation defect oriented in the direct...
