Recently, a giant spin splitting has been observed in surface alloys on noble metal (111) surfaces as a result of a strong structural modification at the surface as well as the large atomic spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the alloy atoms.…
We study the magnetic susceptibility of a layered semiconductor BiTeI with giant Rashba spin splitting both theoretically and experimentally to explore its orbital magnetism. Apart from the core contributions, a large temperature-dependent…
We use polarization resolved Raman spectroscopy to demonstrate that for a 3D giant Rashba system the bulk plasmon collective mode can directly couple to the Raman response even in the long wavelength $\mathbf q \rightarrow 0$ limit.…
Topological insulators are known to their metallic surface states, a result of strong-spin-orbital coupling, that show unique surface transport phenomenon. But these surface transports are buried in presence of metallic bulk conduction. We…
Two-dimensional crystals with coupling of ferroelasticity and attractive electronic properties offer unprecedent opportunities for achieving long-sought controllable devices. But so far, the reported proposals are mainly based on…
A surface layer ("skin") that is functionally and structurally different from the bulk was found in single crystals of BiFeO3. Impedance analysis indicates that a previously reported anomaly at T* ~ 275 \pm 5 ^/circC corresponds to a phase…
Based on the ab initio calculations, we study the electronic structure of the BiTeI/MnBi2Te4 heterostructure interface composed of the anti-ferromagnetic topological insulator MnBi$_2$Te$_4$ and the polar semiconductor trilayer BiTeI. We…
Strong spin-orbit coupling in noncentrosymmetric materials and interfaces results in remarkable physical phenomena, such as nontrivial spin textures, which may exhibit Rashba, Dresselhaus, and other intricated configurations. This provides…
We study the electronic structure and correlated phases of twisted bilayers of platinum diselenide using large-scale ab initio simulations combined with the functional renormalization group. PtSe$_2$ is a group-X transition metal…
Tunability of interfacial effects between two-dimensional (2D) crystals is crucial not only for understanding the intrinsic properties of each system, but also for designing electronic devices based on ultra-thin heterostructures. A…
This article reports the synthesis of a single crystalline mixed topological insulator (TI) BiSbTe$_3$ and its detailed structural and magneto-transport properties. The single crystalline samples of BiSbTe$_3$ are grown by the melt-growth…
Two-dimensional crystals of semimetallic van der Waals materials hold much potential for the realization of novel phases, as exemplified by the recent discoveries of a polar metal in few layer 1T'-WTe$_2$ and of a quantum spin Hall state in…
The scientific interest in two-dimensional topological insulators (2D TIs) is currently shifting from a more fundamental perspective to the exploration and design of novel functionalities. Key concepts for the use of 2D TIs in spintronics…
The spin-1 Ising model with bilinear and biquadratic exchange interactions and single-ion crystal field is solved on the Bethe lattice using exact recursion equations. The general procedure of critical properties investigation is discussed…
Various multi-spin magnetic exchange interactions (MEI) of chiral nature have been recently unveiled. Owing to their potential impact on the realisation of twisted spin-textures, their implication in spintronics or quantum computing is very…
The advent of two-dimensional (2D) crystals has led to numerous scientific breakthroughs. Conventional 2D systems have in-plane covalent bonds and a weak out-of-plane van-der-Waals bond. Here we report a new type of 2D material composed of…
The discovery of new families of exfoliatable 2D crystals that have diverse sets of electronic, optical, and spin-orbit coupling properties, enables the realization of unique physical phenomena in these few-atom thick building blocks and in…
We study the possibility of pressure-induced transitions from a normal semiconductor to a topological insulator (TI) in bismuth tellurohalides using density functional theory and tight-binding method. In BiTeI this transition is realized…
We report experimental evidence of surface dominated transport in single crystalline nanoflake devices of topological insulator Bi1.5Sb0.5Te1.8Se1.2. The resistivity measurements show dramatic difference between the nanoflake devices and…
Electronic states on the Bi/InAs(110)-(2$\times$1) surface and its spin-polarized structure are revealed by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES), spin-resolved ARPES, and density-functional-theory calculation. The surface state…
