SUMMARY:Disorder-driven quantum transition in Dirac semimetals and semicond
	uctors
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Leo Radzihovsky\, CU Boulder\nHosted by: Anatoli Polk
	ovnikov\n\nPart of the Biophysics/Condensed Matter Seminar Series.\n\nMotiv
	ated by Weyl semimetals and weakly doped semiconductors\, I will discuss re
	cent work on non-Anderson disorder-driven criticality in weakly doped semim
	etals and semiconductors. I will show that above a critical dimensions at l
	ow-electron density these systems generically exhibit a novel disorder-driv
	en quantum phase transition that manifests itself in the critical behavior 
	of the single-particle density of states\, electrical transport\, wavefunct
	ion multi-fractality and other observables. These can be computed via a con
	trolled renormalization-group analysis.
