 o-sinova/\nTopological Antiferromagnetic Spin-orbitronics:\nAntiferromagne
 tic spintronics considers the active manipulation of the antiferromagnetic
  order parameter in spin-based devices. An additional concept that has eme
 rged is that antiferromagnets provide a unifying platform for realizing sy
 nergies among three prominent fields of contemporary condensed matter phys
 ics: Dirac quasiparticles and topological phases. Here spintronic devices 
 made of antiferromagnets with their unique symmetries will allow us to con
 trol the emergence and to study the properties of Dirac/Weyl fermion topol
 ogical phases that are otherwise principally immune against external stimu
 li. In return\, the resulting topological magneto-transport phenomena open
  the prospect of new\, highly efficient means for operating the antiferrom
 agnetic memory-logic devices. We discuss how these topological phases emer
 ge and how their robustness depends on the relative orientation of the Nee
 l order parameter that can be manipulated by Neel spin-orbit torques. Thei
 r natural excitations are in the THz but with the additional consideration
  that they can now be directly tuned.\n \nAbout the research of the speak
