Abstract

${WTe}_{2}$ stands out as a semimetal presenting Fermi level quantum oscillations in most measured quantities under magnetic fields. However, the electronic band structure above and below the Fermi level has not been completely explored. Here we study the electronic band structure of ${WTe}_{2}$ by quasiparticle interference with scanning tunneling microscopy and observe, with the support of density functional theory, the electron and hole bands around the Fermi level. We also report on the observation of Landau quantization in atomically resolved measurements and discuss the possible connection with band structure calculations.
