Topological Crystalline Insulators and Topological Superconductors: From Concepts to Materials

In this review, we discuss recent progress in the explorations of topological materials beyond topological insulators; specifically, we focus on topological crystalline insulators and bulk topological superconductors. The basic concepts, model Hamiltonians, and novel electronic properties of these new topological materials are explained. The key role of symmetries that underlie their topologica...

Focus on materials science of topological insulators and superconductors

Akihiro Tanaka and Taizo Sasaki National Institute for Materials Science, Japan In a March 1997 article in Physics Today [1], Gerald Mahan, Brian Sales and Jeff Sharp write on what they deem a ‘new approach to an old problem’. The subject is thermoelectric materials, which is indeed an old problem, predating the inception of modern solid state physics itself: thermoelectric refrigeration using ...

Band inversion mechanism in topological insulators: A guideline for materials design

Alteration of the topological order by band inversion is a key ingredient of a topologically nontrivial material. Using first-principles calculations for HgTe, PtScBi, and Bi2Se3, we argue that it is not accurate to ascribe the band inversion to the spin-orbit coupling. Instead, scalar relativistic effects and/or lattice distortions are found to be essential. Therefore, the search for topologic...

Topological crystalline insulators.

The recent discovery of topological insulators has revived interest in the band topology of insulators. In this Letter, we extend the topological classification of band structures to include certain crystal point group symmetry. We find a class of three-dimensional "topological crystalline insulators" which have metallic surface states with quadratic band degeneracy on high symmetry crystal sur...
