Electronic transport in strain Weyl semimetals

We consider the electronic transport in Weyl semimetals (WSM) due to the superposition of an external magnetic field and mechanical strain. We find exact analytical solutions for single-particle states inside and outside of the strained region. We obtain analytical expressions for the scattering cross-section in this setup, that allows us to explicitly calculate analytically the current-voltage characteristics, as well as the differential conductance through the strained region within the Landauer approximation [1]. We study the dependence of the conductance as a function of temperature, magnetic field and mechanical strain.
