Abstract
Nodal-line shaped bands appearing near the Fermi level host unique properties in topological matter, which has yet to be confirmed in real materials. Here, the authors report the existence of topological nodal-line states in the non-centrosymmetric single-crystalline spin-orbit semimetal PbTaSe2.
