Terahertz cyclotron emission from two-dimensional Dirac fermions
S. Gebert, C. Consejo, S. S. Krishtopenko +13
Since the emergence of graphene, we have seen several proposals for the realization of Landau lasers tunable over the terahertz frequency range. The hope was that the non-equidista…
Large inverted band-gap in strained three-layer InAs/GaInSb quantum wells
C. Avogadri, S. Gebert, S. S. Krishtopenko +17
Quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHIs) based on HgTe and three-layer InAs/GaSb quantum wells (QWs) have comparable bulk band-gaps of about 10--18~meV. The former however features a b…
Many-particle effects in optical transitions from zero-mode Landau levels in HgTe quantum wells
S. S. Krishtopenko, A. M. Kadykov, S. Gebert +9
We report on the far-infrared magnetospectroscopy of HgTe quantum wells with inverted band ordering at different electron concentrations. We particularly focus on optical transitio…
High frequency impact ionization and nonlinearity of photocurrent induced by intense terahertz radiation in HgTe-based quantum well structures
S. Hubmann, G. V. Budkin, A. P. Dmitriev +10
We report on a strong nonlinear behavior of the photogalvanics and photoconductivity under excitation of HgTe quantum wells (QWs) by intense terahertz (THz) radiation. The increasi…
Photogalvanic probing of helical edge channels in 2D HgTe topological insulators
K. -M. Dantscher, D. A. Kozlov, M. T. Scherr +10
We report on the observation of a circular photogalvanic current excited by terahertz (THz) laser radiation in helical edge channels of HgTe-based 2D topological insulators (TIs).…
