Entangled spin-orbital texture in topological insulators
A Damascelli ndrea University of British Columbia Entangled spin-orbital texture in topological insulators With their spin-helical metallic surface state, topological insulators define a new state of matter with strong application potential in spintronics. In this talk, I will illustrate how modern spin and electron spectroscopy techniques can be used to reveal the entangled spin-orbital textur...
متن کاملHelical Spin Order from Topological Dirac and Weyl Semimetals.
We study dynamical mass generation and the resultant helical spin orders in topological Dirac and Weyl semimetals, including the edge states of quantum spin Hall insulators, the surface states of weak topological insulators, and the bulk materials of Weyl semimetals. In particular, the helical spin textures of Weyl semimetals manifest the spin-momentum locking of Weyl fermions in a visible mann...
متن کاملMean-field theory of spin-liquid states with finite energy gap and topological orders.
The mean field theory of a T and P symmetric spin liquid state is developed. The quasiparticle excitations in the spin liquid state are shown to be spin 1 2 neutral fermions (the spinons) and charge e spinless bosons (the holons). The spin liquid state is shown to be characterized by a non-trivial topological order. Although our discussions are based on the mean field theory, the concept of the...
متن کاملNonmagnetic band gap at the Dirac point of the magnetic topological insulator (Bi1−xMnx)2Se3
Magnetic doping is expected to open a band gap at the Dirac point of topological insulators by breaking time-reversal symmetry and to enable novel topological phases. Epitaxial (Bi(1-x)Mn(x))2Se3 is a prototypical magnetic topological insulator with a pronounced surface band gap of ∼100 meV. We show that this gap is neither due to ferromagnetic order in the bulk or at the surface nor to the loc...
متن کاملStrain engineering Dirac surface states in heteroepitaxial topological crystalline insulator thin films.
The unique crystalline protection of the surface states in topological crystalline insulators has led to a series of predictions of strain-generated phenomena, from the appearance of pseudo-magnetic fields and helical flat bands to the tunability of Dirac surface states by strain that may be used to construct 'straintronic' nanoswitches. However, the practical realization of this exotic phenome...
