Here, we propose a mechanism for realizing ideal WSMs: a class of semiconductors can undergo a transition into ideal WSM via bandgap closing. This transition can be driven by chemical doping, which modulates the band gap and enhances spin\u2013orbit coupling, leading to linear crossing between the valence and conduction bands and triggering the topological phase transition. Using first-principles calculations, we demonstrate the realization of this mechanism in the Cu\n                    <jats:inline-formula>\n                      <jats:tex-math>\n                        \n                      <\/jats:tex-math>\n                      <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" overflow=\"scroll\">\n                        <mml:mrow>\n                          <mml:msub>\n                            <mml:mi\/>\n                            <mml:mn>2<\/mml:mn>\n                          <\/mml:msub>\n                        <\/mml:mrow>\n                      <\/mml:math>\n                    <\/jats:inline-formula>\n                    SnSe\n                    <jats:inline-formula>\n                      <jats:tex-math>\n                        \n                      <\/jats:tex-math>\n                      <mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\" overflow=\"scroll\">\n                        <mml:mrow>\n                          <mml:msub>\n                            <mml:mi\/>\n                            <mml:mn>3<\/mml:mn>\n                          <\/mml:msub>\n                        <\/mml:mrow>\n                      <\/mml:math>\n                    <\/jats:inline-formula>\n                    series materials, where two pairs of Weyl points emerge extremely close to the Fermi level.
