Structure of the candidate Weyl semi-metal Mn3Ge
We propose to investigate the crystal structure of antiferromagnetic Mn3Ge, which has been predicted to host relativistic quasi-particles called Weyl fermions. However, the Mn3Ge single crystals obtained from the melt are very prone to being off-stoichiometric (up to 10%). We have synthesized Mn3Ge crystals via the flux-growth method. This is the first reported flux-grown single crystal of Mn3Ge. Specifically, we want to find out whether the stoichiometry and site occupation of flux-grown crystals is different from melt-grown crystals.
