The surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator (TI) hosts two-dimensional massless Dirac fermions (DFs), the gapless and spin-helical nature of which yields many exotic phenomena, such as the immunity of topological surface states…
Indium (In) doping in topological crystalline insulator SnTe induces superconductivity, making In-doped SnTe a candidate for a topological superconductor. SnTe nanostructures offer well-defined nanoscale morphology and high…
The impact of surface morphology on electronic structure of topological crystalline insulators is studied theoretically. As an example, the structure of topologically protected electronic states on a (001) (Pb,Sn)Se surface with terraces of…
The rise of topological insulators in recent years has broken new ground both in the conceptual cognition of condensed matter physics and the promising revolution of the electronic devices. It also stimulates the explorations of more…
The realization of topological surface states and superconductivity within a single material platform is a crucial step toward achieving topologically nontrivial superconductivity. This can be achieved at an interface between a…
Topological properties of systems lead to the emergence of surface states which can be observed experimentally within the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements. Recently, the topological properties of Pb$_{2}$Pd…
Spectroscopy of vortex bound states can provide valuable information on the structure of the superconducting order parameter. Quasiparticle wavefunctions are expected to leak out in the directions of gap minima or nodes, if they exist, and…
The nontrivial topology of the electronic structure of iron pnictides can lead to the appearance of surface states. We study such states in various strip geometries with a focus on the superconducting phase. In the presence of…
Discovery of topologically protected surface states, believed to be immune to weak disorder and thermal effects, opened up a new avenue to reveal exotic fundamental science and advanced technology. While time-reversal symmetry plays the key…
We present angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements of the surface states on in-situ grown (111) oriented films of Pb$_{1-x}$Sn$_{x}$Se, a three dimensional topological crystalline insulator. We observe surface states with…
Topological crystalline insulators are topological insulators whose surface states are protected by the crystalline symmetry, instead of the time reversal symmetry. Similar to the first generation of three-dimensional topological insulators…
The opening of a band gap due to compressive uniaxial strain renders bulk HgTe a strong three-dimensional topological insulators with protected gapless surface states at any surface. By employing a six-band k.p model, we determine the spin…
We investigated the magnetotransport properties of strained, 80nm thick HgTe layers featuring a high mobility of mu =4x10^5 cm^2/Vs. By means of a top gate the Fermi-energy is tuned from the valence band through the Dirac type surface…
Gold surfaces host special electronic states that have been understood as a prototype of Shockley surface states (SSs). These SSs are commonly employed to benchmark the capability of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and…
Topological insulators are characterized by specially protected conduction on their outer boundaries. We show that the protected edge conduction exhibited by 2-D topological insulators (and also Chern insulators) is independent of…
Topological insulators represent a novel state of matter with surface charge carriers having a massless Dirac dispersion and locked helical spin polarization. Many exciting experiments have been proposed by theory, yet, their execution have…
