Topological properties in condensed matter physics are often claimed to be a fruitful resource for technical applications, but so far they only play a minor role in applications. Here we propose to put topological edge states to use in…
We study the possibility of realizing quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) with tunable Chern number through doping magnetic elements in the multi-layer topological insulator film. We find that high Chern number QAHE phases exist in the…
Topological effects continue to fascinate physicists since more than three decades. One of their main applications are high-precision measurements of the resistivity. We propose to make also use of the spatially separated edge states. It is…
The discovery of the fractional quantum Hall effect in GaAs-based semiconductor devices has lead to new advances in condensed matter physics, in particular the possibility for exotic, topological phases of matter that possess fractional,…
The quantum Hall effect is one of the most important developments in condensed matter physics of the 20th century. The standard explanations of the famous integer quantized Hall plateaus in the transverse resistivity are qualitative, and…
The integer quantum Hall effect is a topological state of quantum matter in two dimensions, and has recently been observed in three-dimensional topological insulator thin films. Here we study the Landau levels and edge states of surface…
The quantum anomalous Hall effect in magnetic topological insulators has been recognized as a promising platform for applications in quantum metrology. The primary reason for this is the electronic conductance quantization at zero external…
According to the bulk-edge correspondence principle, the physics of the gapless edge in the quantum Hall effect determines topological order in the gapped bulk. As the bulk is less accessible, the last two decades saw the emergence of…
In a quantum Hall interferometer, the dependence of the signal on source-drain voltage is controlled by details of the edge physics, such as the velocities of edge modes and the interaction between them and with screening layers. Such…
This review presents experimental results on the inter-edge-state transport in the quantum Hall effect, mostly obtained in the regime of high imbalance. The application of a special geometry makes it possible to perform I-V spectroscopy…
A quantum anomalous Hall state with high Chern number has so far been realized in multiplayer structures consisting of alternating magnetic and undoped topological insulator layers. However, in previous proposals, the Chern number can be…
We discuss the quantum Hall effect of bilayer graphene with finite gate voltage where the Fermi energy exceeds the interlayer hopping energy. We calculated magnetic susceptibility, diagonal and off-diagonal conductivities in…
The integral and fractional quantum Hall effects are among the most important discoveries in condensed matter physics in 1980s. The main results can be summarized in the conductance matrix. When the filling factor is an integer or some…
Topological insulators are a broad class of unconventional materials that are insulating in the interior but conduct along the edges. This edge transport is topologically protected and dissipationless. Until recently, all existing…
Transport experiments provide conflicting evidence on the possible existence of fractional order within integer quantum Hall systems. In fact integer edge states sometimes behave as monolithic objects with no inner structure, while other…
In recent years, counter-intuitive results have shown that the quantum Hall edge states with topological protection can be dissipative. In this paper, we point out that the non-equilibrium nature of edge states in quantum Hall…
We propose models of two dimensional paramagnetic semiconductors where the intrinsic spin Hall effect is exactly quantized in integer units of a topological charge. The model describes a topological insulator in the bulk, and a "holographic…
Ultra-thin 3D topological insulators provide a stage to study the surface physics of such materials by minimizing the bulk contribution. Further, the experimentally verified snowflake like structure of the Fermi surface leads to a hexagonal…
The control of the electronic properties of materials via the vacuum fields of cavity electromagnetic resonators is one of the emerging frontiers of condensed matter physics. We show here that the enhancement of vacuum field fluctuations in…
Multicomponent quantum Hall effect, under the interplay between intercomponent and intracomponent correlations, leads us to new emergent topological orders. Here, we report the theoretical discovery of fractional quantum hall effect of…
