Van der Waals heterostructures have been used to tailor atomic layers into various artificial materials through interactions at heterointerfaces. The interplay between the band gap created by the band folding of the interfacial potential…
In the following paper we investigate the critical temperature $T_c$ behavior in the two-dimensional S/TI (S denotes superconductor and TI - topological insulator) junction with a proximity induced in-plane helical magnetization in the TI…
Topological superconductors (TSC) become a focus of research due to the accompanying Majorana fermions. However, the experimentally reported TSC are extremely rare. The recent experiments reported the kagome TSC AV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$ (A=K, Rb,…
A quantum spin Hall insulator hosts topological states at the one-dimensional edge, along which backscattering by nonmagnetic impurities is strictly prohibited and dissipationless current flows. Its 3D analogue, a weak topological insulator…
Using spin-resolved and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculations, we have identified bulk band inversion and spin polarized surface state evolved from a weak topological insulator (TI) phase in van der…
At present, topological insulators are the most efficient thermoelectric materials at room temperature. However, at non-zero temperatures, it seems to arise a conflict between having time-reversal symmetry, which implies minimal entropy,…
Non-local carrier injection/detection schemes lie at the very foundation of information manipulation in integrated systems. This paradigm consists in controlling with an external signal the channel where charge carriers flow between a…
Low-symmetry two-dimensional (2D) topological materials such as MoTe$_2$ host efficient charge-to-spin conversion (CSC) mechanisms that can be harnessed for novel electronic and spintronic devices. However, the nature of the various CSC…
The paradigm of classifying three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators into strong and weak ones (STI and WTI) opens the door for the discovery of various topological phases of matter protected by different symmetries and defined in…
Gapless boundary modes at the interface between topologically distinct regions are one of the most salient manifestations of topology in physics. Metallic boundary states of time-reversal-invariant topological insulators (TIs), a…
Spin-charge interconversion (SCI) is a central phenomenon to the development of spintronic devices from materials with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In the case of materials with high crystal symmetry, the only allowed SCI processes are…
It is widely believed that topological superconductivity, a hitherto elusive phase of quantum matter, can be achieved by inducing superconductivity in topological materials. In search of such topological superconductors, certain topological…

Using a metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) structure with a high-quality CoFe/n^+Si contact, we systematically study spin injection and spin accumulation in a nondegenerated Si channel with a doping density of ~…
A voltage-controlled topological-spin switch (vTOPSS) that uses a hybrid topological insulator-magnetic insulator multiferroic is presented that can implement Boolean logic operations with sub-10 aJ energy-per-bit and energy-delay product…
Spintronics aims to exploit the spin degree of freedom in solid state devices for data storage and information processing technologies. The fundamental spintronic device concepts such as creation, manipulation and detection of spin…
The theoretical prediction of topological insulators in 2007 triggered tremendous interest. They are of fundamental interest because of their topological twist in k-space, which comes along with unidirectional, spin-polarized surface-state…
We lay out an experiment to realize time-reversal invariant topological insulators in alkali atomic gases. We introduce an original method to synthesize a gauge field in the near-field of an atom-chip, which effectively mimics the effects…
Two-dimensional topological insulators (2DTIs), which host the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect, are one of the key materials in next-generation spintronic devices. To date, experimental evidence of the QSH effect has only been observed in a…
Waveguides and resonators are core components in the large-scale integration of electronics, photonics, and phononics, both in existing and future scenarios. In certain situations, there is critical coupling of the two components; i.e., no…
