Ultrathin (~3 quintuple layer) field-effect transistors (FETs) of topological insulator Bi2Se3 are prepared by mechanical exfoliation on 300nm SiO2/Si susbtrates. Temperature- and gate-voltage dependent conductance measurements show that…
Structural, resistivity, thermoelectric power and magneto-transport properties of Cu doped Bi2Te3 topological insulators have been investigated. The occurrence of the tuning of charge carriers from n type to p type by Cu doping at Te sites…
Transient reflectivity measurements of thin films, ranging from 6 to 40 nm in thickness, of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 revealed a strong dependence of the carrier relaxation time on the film thickness. For thicker films the relaxation…
We report an experimental study of electron transport properties of MnSe/(Bi,Sb)2Te3 heterostructures, in which MnSe is an antiferromagnetic insulator, and (Bi,Sb)2Te3 is a three-dimensional topological insulator (TI). Strong magnetic…
We report on a temperature-induced transition from a conventional semiconductor to a two-dimensional topological insulator investigated by means of magnetotransport experiments on HgTe/CdTe quantum well structures. At low temperatures, we…
We theoretically consider temperature and density-dependent electron-phonon interaction induced many-body effects in the two-dimensional (2D) metallic carriers confined on the surface of the 3D topological insulator (e.g. Bi$_2$Se$_3$). We…
Material defects remain as the main bottleneck to the progress of topological insulators (TIs). In particular, efforts to achieve thin TI samples with dominant surface transport have always led to increased defects and degraded mobilities,…
We present a new method to obtain topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin films with a centimeter large lateral length. To produce amorphous Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin films we have used a sequential flash-evaporation method at room temperature.…
Topological insulators with their topological protected surface states are highly promising quantum materials. In this article the micro-flakes of single-crystalline topological insulators Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3 are explored through physical…

Carrier-independent ferromagnetism of chromium doped topological insulator $Bi_xSb_{2-x}Te_3$ thin films,which cannot be explained by current theory of dilute magnetic semiconductor, has been reported recently. To study if it is related to…
Despite many years of efforts, attempts to reach the quantum regime of topological surface states (TSS) on an electrically tunable topological insulator (TI) platform have so far failed on binary TI compounds such as Bi2Se3 due to high…
The possibility of electron beam guiding is theoretically explored on the surface of a topological insulator through the proximity interaction with a magnetic material. The electronic band modification induced by the exchange coupling at…
We use laser-based Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) to study how chemical substitution modifies the electronic properties of the Bi2(Se{1-x}Tex)3 (BiSeTe) family of topological insulators. We find that increasing the Te…
We report a metal-insulator like transition in single crystalline 3D topological insulator Bi2Te3 at a temperature of 230K in presence of an external magnetic field applied normal to the surface. This transition becomes more prominent at…
The tunability of the chemical potential for a wide range encompassing the Dirac point is important for many future devices based on topological insulators. Here we report a method to fabricate highly efficient top gates on epitaxially…
A simple surface band structure and a large bulk band gap have allowed Bi2Se3 to become a reference material for the newly discovered three-dimensional topological insulators, which exhibit topologically-protected conducting surface states…
Electric field-induced giant resistive switching triggered by insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) is one of the promising approaches for developing a new class of electronics often referred to as Mottronics. Achieving this resistive…
Topological insulators possess a non-conductive bulk and present surface states, henceforth, they are electrically conductive along their boundaries. Bismuth selenide ($Bi_2Se_3$) is one of the most promising topological insulators.…
Certain insulating materials with strong spin-orbit coupling can conduct currents along their edges or surfaces. This phenomenon arises from the non-trivial topological properties of the electronic band-structure, and is somewhat similar to…
