Abstract The presence of a pair of Weyl and Dirac points (WP-DP) in topological semimetal states is intriguing and sought after due to the effects associated with chiral topological charges. However, identifying these states in real materials poses a significant challenge. In this study, by means of first-principles calculations we predict the coexistence of charge-2 Dirac and charge-2 Weyl phonons at high-symmetry points within a noncentrosymmetric $P4_12_12$ space group. Furthermore, we propose GeO$_2$ as an ideal candidate for realizing these states. Notably, we observe two distinct surface arcs that connect the Dirac and Weyl points across the entire Brillouin zone, which could facilitate their detection in future experimental investigations. This study not only presents a tangible material for experimentalists to explore the topological properties of WP-DP states but also opens up new avenues in the quest for ideal platforms to study chiral particles.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
