(A and B) The projected (11¯0) surface Brillouin zone on which several k points, k paths, and the predicted positions of the unpinned surface DPs are detailed. (C) The schematic shows the unpinned surface DPs on the surface preserving C2. (D) Surface band spectrum along the high-symmetry k path, T¯Γ¯L¯. Inset shows that the surface states are gapped along this path. (E and F) Surface band spectrum along the k paths containing the DP (see the trajectories in B). The spectrum in F shows that the surface Dirac fermion is type II: The Dirac cone is strongly tilted so that the velocities of the two bands that cross have the same sign. (G and H) WCCs of the loop integrated around [11¯0] (kx) at (G) ky=0π/b and (H) ky=1.195π/b with respect to kz, where A and B indicate two WCC sheets that connect only at generic (ky,kz).
