Landau band crossings typically stem from the intra-band evolution of electronic states in magnetic fields and enhance the interaction effect in their vicinity. Here in the extreme quantum limit of topological insulator HfTe5, we report the observation of a topological Lifshitz transition from inter-band Landau level crossings using magneto-infrared spectroscopy. By tracking the Landau level transitions, we demonstrate that band inversion drives the zeroth Landau bands to cross with each other after 4.5 T and forms a one-dimensional Weyl mode with the fundamental gap persistently closed. The unusual reduction of the zeroth Landau level transition activity suggests a topological Lifshitz transition at 21 T, which shifts the Weyl mode close to the Fermi level. As a result, a broad and asymmetric absorption feature emerges due to the Pauli blocking effect in one dimension, along with a distinctive negative magneto-resistivity. Our results provide a strategy for realizing one-dimensional Weyl quasiparticles in bulk crystals.

HfTe5 中的拓扑 Lifshitz 跃迁和一维 Weyl 模式

朗道带交叉通常源于磁场中电子态的带内演化,并增强了它们附近的相互作用效应。这里是拓扑绝缘体 HfTe 5的极限量子极限,我们报告了使用磁红外光谱从带间 Landau 水平交叉口观察到的拓扑 Lifshitz 跃迁。通过跟踪 Landau 能级跃迁,我们证明能带反转驱动第 0 个 Landau 能带在 4.5 T 后相互交叉,并形成基本间隙持续闭合的一维 Weyl 模式。第 0 个 Landau 能级跃迁活动的异常减少表明 21 T 处的拓扑 Lifshitz 跃迁,这将 Weyl 模式移动到接近费米能级。结果,由于一维泡利阻塞效应以及独特的负磁阻效应,出现了广泛且不对称的吸收特征。我们的结果提供了一种在块状晶体中实现一维外尔准粒子的策略。
