Shadow surface states in topological Kondo insulators

چکیده

The surface states of 3D topological insulators in general have negligible quantum oscillations when the chemical potential is tuned to Dirac points. In contrast, we find that Kondo can support with an arbitrarily large Fermi pinned point. We illustrate these surfaces give rise finite-frequency oscillations, which become comparable extremal area unhybridized bulk bands. show this occurs crystal symmetry lowered from cubic tetragonal a minimal two-orbital model. label such modes as `shadow states'. Moreover, sufficient next-nearest neighbor out-of-plane hybridization leading shadow be self-consistently stabilized for insulators. Consequently, provide important example high-frequency beyond context

Kondo breakdown in topological Kondo insulators.

Motivated by the observation of light surface states in SmB6, we examine the effects of surface Kondo breakdown in topological Kondo insulators. We present both numerical and analytic results which show that the decoupling of the localized moments at the surface disturbs the compensation between light and heavy electrons and dopes the Dirac cone. Dispersion of these uncompensated surface states...

Topological Kondo insulators.

Kondo insulators are a particularly simple type of heavy electron material, where a filled band of heavy quasiparticles gives rise to a narrow band insulator. Starting with the Anderson lattice Hamiltonian, we develop a topological classification of emergent band structures for Kondo insulators and show that these materials may host three-dimensional topological insulating phases. We propose a ...

Cubic topological Kondo insulators.

Current theories of Kondo insulators employ the interaction of conduction electrons with localized Kramers doublets originating from a tetragonal crystalline environment, yet all Kondo insulators are cubic. Here we develop a theory of cubic topological Kondo insulators involving the interaction of Γ(8) spin quartets with a conduction sea. The spin quartets greatly increase the potential for str...

Surface States of Topological Insulators

We introduce a topological boundary condition to study the surface states of topological insulators within a long-wavelength four-band model. We find that the Dirac point energy, the band curvature, and the spin texture of surface states are crystal-face dependent. For an arbitrary termination of a bulk crystal, the energy of the symmetry protected Dirac point is determined by the bulk physics ...
