Topological phase transition from T-carbon to bct-C16

The realization of nontrivial fermions in three-dimensional carbon allotropes greatly facilitates topological applications in carbon based-materials. In this work, we find a topological phase transition from T-carbon to bct-C _16 based on first principles calculations. After carrying out a heating o...
