Single Crystal Growth, Resistivity, and Electronic Structure of the Weyl Semimetals NbP and TaP

We have successfully synthesized niobium monophosphide and tantalum monophosphide crystals by a chemical vapor transport technique. We report resistivity vs. temperature of both materials in the temperature range from 2 K to 300 K. We have also performed electronic structure calculations and present...
