Strong and Weak Three-Dimensional Topological Insulators Probed by Surface Science Methods

Markus Morgenstern, Christian Pauly, Jens Kellner +12

We review the contributions of surface science methods to discover and improve 3D topological insulator materials, while illustrating with examples from our own work. In particular…

Temperature-dependent spin-resolved electronic structure of EuO thin films

Tristan Heider, Timm Gerber, Okan Köksal +10

The electronic structure of the ferromagnetic semiconductor EuO is investigated by means of spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (spin-ARPES) and density functional…

Localized segregation of gold in ultra-thin Fe films on Au(001)

Pika Gospodaric, Ewa Mlynczak, Markus Eschbach +5

The growth of up to 10 monolayer-thick Fe films on a Au(001) surface was investigated during deposition at room temperature and during annealing using low-energy electron diffracti…

Electrical resistance of individual defects at a topological insulator surface

Felix Lüpke, Markus Eschbach, Tristan Heider +10

Three-dimensional topological insulators host surface states with linear dispersion, which manifest as a Dirac cone. Nanoscale transport measurements provide direct access to the t…

Direct observation of the band gap transition in atomically thin ReS

Mathias Gehlmann, Irene Aguilera, Gustav Bihlmayer +13

ReS is considered as a promising candidate for novel electronic and sensor applications. The low crystal symmetry of the van der Waals compound ReS leads to a highly anisot…

$\mbox{Bi}_{1}\mbox{Te}_{1}$: a dual topological insulator

Markus Eschbach, Martin Lanius, Chengwang Niu +15

A combined theoretical and experimental study reveals evidence for the dual topological insulating character of the stoichiometric natural superlattice phase $\mathrm{Bi_{1}Te_{1}}…

Photon Drag Effect in (BiSb)Te Three Dimensional Topological Insulators

H. Plank, L. E. Golub, S. Bauer +10

We report on the observation of a terahertz radiation induced photon drag effect in epitaxially grown - and -type (BiSb)Te three dimensional topolog…

Growth, characterization, and transport properties of ternary (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 topological insulator layers

C. Weyrich, M. Drögeler, J. Kampmeier +12

Ternary (Bi1-xSbx)2Te3 films with an Sb content between 0 and 100% were deposited on a Si(111) substrate by means of molecular beam epitaxy. X-ray diffraction measurements confirm…

Quasi 2D electronic states with high spin-polarization in centrosymmetric MoS bulk crystals

Mathias Gehlmann, Gustav Bihlmayer, Irene Aguilera +9

Time reversal dictates that nonmagnetic, centrosymmetric crystals cannot be spin-polarized as a whole. However, it has been recently shown that the electronic structure in these cr…

Realization of a vertical topological p-n junction in epitaxial heterostructures

Markus Eschbach, Ewa Mlynczak, Jens Kellner +17

3D topological insulators are a new state of quantum matter which exhibits both a bulk band structure with an insulating energy gap as well as metallic spin-polarized Dirac fermion…

Tuning the Dirac point to the Fermi level in the ternary topological insulator (BiSb)Te

Jens Kellner, Markus Eschbach, Jörn Kampmeier +9

In order to stabilize Majorana excitations within vortices of proximity induced topological superconductors, it is mandatory that the Dirac point matches the Fermi level rather exa…

Sub-nm wide electron channels protected by topology

Christian Pauly, Bertold Rasche, Klaus Koepernik +11

Helical locking of spin and momentum and prohibited backscattering are the key properties of topologically protected states. They are expected to enable novel types of information…

Room temperature high frequency transport of Dirac fermions in epitaxially grown Sb_2Te_3 based topological insulators

P. Olbrich, L. E. Golub, T. Herrmann +11

We report on the observation of photogalvanic effects in epitaxially grown Sb_2Te_3 three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators (TI). We show that asymmetric scattering of Dirac…
