Experimental realization of a topological p-n junction by intrinsic defect-grading

T. Bathon, S. Achilli, P. Sessi +4

A junction between an n- and p-type semiconductor results in the creation of a depletion region whose properties are at the basis of nowadays electronics. If realized using topolog…

Scattering properties of the three-dimensional topological insulator Sb2Te3: Coexistence of topologically trivial and non-trivial surface states with opposite spin-momentum helicity

P. Sessi, O. Storz, T. Bathon +5

The binary chalcogenides Bi2Te3 and Bi2Se3 are the most widely studied topological insulators. Although the quantum anomalous Hall effect has recently been observed in magnetically…

Termination-dependent surface properties in the giant-Rashba semiconductors BiTeX (X = Cl, Br, I)

Sebastian Fiedler, Thomas Bathon, Sergey V. Eremeev +7

The non-centrosymmetric semiconductors BiTeX (X = Cl, Br, I) show large Rashba-type spin-orbit splittings in their electronic structure making them candidate materials for spin-bas…

Lattice dynamics of MgSiO perovskite (bridgmanite) studied by inelastic x-ray scattering and ab initio calculations

Björn Wehinger, Alexeï Bosak, Sabrina Nazzareni +9

We have determined the lattice dynamics of MgSiO perovskite (bridgmanite) by a combination of single-crystal inelastic x-ray scattering and ab initio calculations. We observe a…

Potassium carbonate under pressure: common structural trend for alkaline carbonates and binary compounds

Pavel N. Gavryushkin, Anna Y. Likhacheva, Zakhar I. Popov +5

The behaviour of alkaline carbonates at high pressure is poorly understood. Indeed, theoretical and experimental investigations of general trends of pressure induced structural cha…

Pressure, stress, and strain distribution in the double-stage diamond anvil cell

Sergey S. Lobanov, Vitali B. Prakapenka, Clemens Prescher +5

Double stage diamond anvil cells (DAC) of two designs have been assembled and tested. We used a standard symmetric DAC as a primary stage and CVD microanvils machined by a focused…

Systematics of molecular self-assembled networks at topological insulators surfaces

Thomas Bathon, Paolo Sessi, Konstantin Kokh +2

The success of topological insulators (TI) in creating devices with unique functionalities is directly connected to the ability of coupling their helical spin states to well define…

Stable magnesium peroxide at high pressure

Sergey S. Lobanov, Qiang Zhu, Nicholas Holtgrewe +4

Rocky planets are thought to comprise compounds of Mg and O as these are among the most abundant elements, but knowledge of their stable phases may be incomplete. MgO is known to b…
