Topological insulator nanostructures
© 2014 Materials Research Society MRS BULLETIN • VOLUME 39 • OCTOBER 2014 • www.mrs.org/bulletin Introduction Topological insulators (TIs) are a class of materials where the bulk is a band insulator, but the surface possesses electronic states carrying electric current. 1 , 2 One unique characteristic of the surface bands is the spin-momentum locking property—electrons have a single spin state ...
متن کاملSynthesis and Quantum Transport Properties of Bi2Se3 Topological Insulator Nanostructures
Bi₂Se₃ nanocrystals with various morphologies, including nanotower, nanoplate, nanoflake, nanobeam and nanowire, have been synthesized. Well-distinguished Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations were observed in Bi₂Se₃ nanoplates and nanobeams. Careful analysis of the SdH oscillations suggests the existence of Berry's phase π, which confirms the quantum transport of the surface Dirac fermions in b...
متن کاملRecent advances in synthetic methods and applications of silver nanostructures
As the advanced functional materials, silver nanoparticles are potentially useful in various fields such as photoelectric, bio-sensing, catalysis, antibacterial and other fields, which are mainly based on their various properties. However, the properties of silver nanoparticles are usually determined by their size, shape, and surrounding medium, which can be modulated by various synthesis metho...
متن کاملDirac fermions at high-index surfaces of bismuth chalcogenide topological insulator nanostructures
Binary bismuth chalcogenides Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3, and related materials are currently being extensively investigated as the reference topological insulators (TIs) due to their simple surface-state band dispersion (single Dirac cone) and relatively large bulk band gaps. Nanostructures of TIs are of particular interest as an increased surface-to-volume ratio enhances the contribution of surfaces state...
متن کاملA natural topological insulator.
The earth's crust and outer space are rich sources of technologically relevant materials which have found application in a wide range of fields. Well-established examples are diamond, one of the hardest known materials, or graphite as a suitable precursor of graphene. The ongoing drive to discover novel materials useful for (opto)electronic applications has recently drawn strong attention to to...
