Noncollinear and noncoplanar magnetic orders lead to unusual electronic structures and transport properties. We here investigate two types of multiple-Q magnetically ordered states and a topological phase transition between them in two…
Based on a combination of $k \cdot p$ theory, band topology analysis and electronic structure calculations, we predict the (111) thin films of the SnTe class of three-dimensional (3D) topological crystalline insulators realize the quantum…
Topological quantum phase transition in electron gas systems is an enthralling phenomena. This phase transition has a unique property in that it is associated with a quantum phase transition point, which separates different regions with…
Topologically protected gapless edge states are phases of quantum matter which behave as massless Dirac fermions, immunizing against disorders and continuous perturbations. Recently, a new class of topological insulators (TIs) with…
Quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHIs), also known as two-dimensional topological insulators, have emerged as an unconventional class of quantum states with insulating bulk and conducting edges originating from nontrivial inverted band…
Bosonic Integer Quantum Hall (IQH) phases are a class of symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases that, similar to the fermionic IQH states, support a quantized Hall conductance. They, however, require interactions for their realization.…
Topological insulators (TIs) are new insulating materials with exotic surface states, where the motion of charge carriers is described by the Dirac equations and their spins are locked in a perpendicular direction to their momentum. Recent…
The surface state of a 3D topological insulator (3DTI) is a spin-momentum locked conductive state, whose large spin hall angle can be used for the energy-efficient spin orbit torque based switching of an overlying ferromagnet (FM).…
We study the energy spectra of bound states in quantum dots (QDs) formed by an electrostatic potential in two-dimensional topological insulator (TI) and their transformation with changes in QD depth and radius. It is found that, unlike a…
Magnetic topological insulators (MnBi$_2$Te$_4$)(Bi$_2$Te$_3$)$_n$ ($n=0,1,2,3$) are promising to realize exotic topological states such as the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) and axion insulator (AI), where the Bi$_2$Te$_3$ layer…
The detection of topological phases of matter becomes a central issue in recent years. Conventionally, the realization of a specific topological phase in condensed matter physics relies on probing the underlying surface band dispersion or…
Two-dimensional (2D) topological electronic insulators are known to give rise to gapless edge modes, which underlie low energy dynamics, including electrical and thermal transport. This has been thoroughly investigated in the context of…
Quantum simulation, as a state-of-art technique, provides the powerful way to explore topological quantum phases beyond natural limits. Nevertheless, a previously-not-realized three-dimensional (3D) chiral topological insulator, and…
We propose a hybrid quantum architecture for engineering a photonicMott insulator-superfluid phase transition in a two-dimensional (2D) square lattice of a superconducting transmission line resonator (TLR) coupled to a single…
We address the problem of hybridization between topological surface states and a non-topological flat bulk band. Our model, being a mixture of three-dimensional Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang and two-dimensional pseudospin-1 Hamiltonian, allows…
Three-dimensional topological insulators support gapless Dirac fermion surface states whose rich topological properties result from the interplay of symmetries and dimensionality. Their topological properties have been extensively studied…
Topological insulators represent a new class of quantum phase defined by invariant symmetries and spin-orbit coupling that guarantees metallic Dirac excitations at its surface. The discoveries of these states have sparked the hope of…
We investigate, by means of a field-theory analysis combined with the density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method, a theoretical model for a strongly correlated quantum system in one dimension realizing a topologically-ordered…
The exploration of novel topological insulators (TIs) beyond binary chalcogenides has been accelerated in pursuit of exotic quantum states and device applications. Here, the layered ternary chalcogenide Ge2Bi2Te5 is identified as a…
High-order topological insulators (TIs) develop the conventional bulk-boundary correspondence theory and rise the interest in searching innovative topological materials. To realize a high-order TI with a wide passband of 1D and 2D…
