Abstract:
The present disclosure refers to increasing the catalytic efficiency of Weyl semimetals by subjecting Weyl semimetals to an external magnetic field of greater than 0 T, for example greater than 0.1 T. In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure the Weyl semimetal is selected from the group consisting of NbP, TaP, NbAs and TaAs.
