Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is one of the most promising topological insulators, but it suffers from intrinsic n-doping due to Se-vacancies, which shifts the Fermi level into the bulk conduction band, leading to topologically trivial carriers. Recently it…

Surface-states of topological insulators are assumed to be robust against non-magnetic defects in the crystal. However, recent theoretical models and experiments indicate that even non-magnetic defects can perturb these states. Our…

Using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy we studied the evolution of the surface electronic structure of the topological insulator $\text{Bi}_2\text{Se}_3$ as a function of water vapor exposure. We find that a surface reaction with…

Effect of doping of graphene either by Boron (B), Nitrogen (N) or co-doped by B and N is studied using density functional theory. Our extensive band structure and density of states calculations indicate that upon doping by N (electron…

Gated terahertz cyclotron resonance measurements on epitaxial Bi2Se3 thin films capped with In2Se3 enable the first spectroscopic characterization of a single topological interface state from the vicinity of the Dirac point to above the…

Gas molecule doping on the topological insulator Bi2 Se3 surface with existing Se vacancies is investigated using first-principles calculations. Consistent with experiments, NO2 and O2 are found to occupy the Se vacancy sites, remove…

In this paper we present scanning tunneling microscopy of Bi$_2$Se$_3$ with superconducting Nb deposited on the surface. We find that the topologically protected surface states of the Bi$_2$Se$_3$ leak into the superconducting over-layer,…

Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) is a good topological insulator (TI) with its surface band Dirac point inside the bulk bandgap. However, Bi2Se3 films grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) often require tuning of Fermi level near the Dirac point…

We investigate the surface state of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and transport measurements. By scanning over the entire Brillouin zone (BZ), we demonstrate that the surface state consists of a single…

Topological insulators are characterized by the existence of band inversion and the possibility of the realization of surface states. Doping with a magnetic atom, which is a source of the time-reversal symmetry breaking, can lead to…

Momentum resolved photoemission spectroscopy indicates the instability of the Dirac surface state upon deposition of gold on the (0001) surface of the topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$. Based on the structure model derived from extended…

Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) is a prototypical three-dimensional topological insulator whose Dirac surface states have been extensively studied theoretically and experimentally. Surprisingly little, however, is known about the energetics and…

By eliminating normal fabrication processes, we preserve the bulk insulating state of calcium-doped Bi2Se3 single crystals in suspended nanodevices, as indicated by the activated temperature dependence of the resistivity at low…

We report the effect of Sn doping on the transport properties of the topological insulator Bi_{2}Te_{2}Se studied in a series of Bi_{2-x}Sn_{x}Te_{2}Se crystals with 0 \leq x \leq 0.02. The undoped stoichiometric compound (x = 0) shows an…

Surfaces of topological insulators host a new class of states with Dirac dispersion and helical spin texture. Potential quantum computing and spintronic applications using these states require manipulation of their electronic properties at…
