Abstract

We conducted a high-t hroughput search for topological magnetic materials across 522 new, experimentally reported commensurate magnetic structures from MAGNDATA, doubling the number of available materials on the Topological Magnetic Materials database. This brings up to date the previous studies. For each material, we performed first-principles electronic calculations and diagnosed the topology as a function of the Hubbard U parameter. Our high-t hroughput calculation led us to the prediction of 250 experimentally relevant topologically nontrivial materials, which represent 47.89% of the newly analyzed materials. We present five remarkable examples of these materials, each showcasing a different topological phase: Mn2AlB2 (BCSID 1.508), which exhibits a nodal line semimetal to topological insulator transition as a function of SOC; CaMnSi (BCSID 0.599), a narrow gap axion insulator; UAsS (BCSID 0.594), a 5forbital Weyl semimetal; CsMnF4 (BCSID 0.327), a material presenting a new type of quasisymmetry protected closed nodal surface; and FeCr2S4 (BCSID 0.613), a symmetry-e nforced semimetal with double Weyls and spinpolarized surface states.
