Abstract
The historic de Haas-van Alphen effect observed in the late 1950s in CSIR-NPL by J.S. Dhillon and D. Shoenberg in pure bismuth and zinc metal is revisited in this article through a single-crystalline phase of bismuth crystal, which is observed in terms of resistivity as predicted by Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations. The single crystal of bismuth is grown through solid-state reaction under an optimized heat treatment whose purity and structural phase are confirmed through XRD, SEM, and EDAX. The transport properties of single crystal show the presence of SdH oscillations from a temperature range of 2 to 10 K. The occurrence of oscillations in the transverse magnetic field confirms the presence of the Fermi surface. Landau level (LL) fan diagram reveals the presence of topological surface states and the Berry’s phase confirmation from temperature-dependent SdH oscillations, concluding the presence of a noble topological phase of bismuth exhibiting SdH oscillations.
