Abstract

In the present study, we have thoroughly characterized the 3D Fermi surface of a topological nodal line semimetal InBi via the Shubnikov--de Haas oscillations and density functional theory. The nitty-gritty of its full 3D Fermi surface has been discussed in detail. The Fermi surface topology and the Hall conductivity emphasized the carrier compensation as a driving force for the observed extremely high magnetoresistance. The magnetotransport revealed a unique magnetic-field-induced metal-semiconducting transition. The origin of such a phenomenon has been elaborated theoretically which has implications for layered topological nodal line semimetals with linearly dispersing bands.
