Backscattering in Topological Edge States Despite Time-Reversal Symmetry
Jonas Erhardt, Mattia Iannetti, Fernando Dominguez +7
Spin-momentum-locked edge states of quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHIs) provide a compelling platform for spintronic applications, owing to their intrinsic protection against back…

Graphene intercalation of the large gap quantum spin Hall insulator bismuthene
Lukas Gehrig, Cedric Schmitt, Jonas Erhardt +5
The quantum spin Hall insulator bismuthene, a two-third monolayer of bismuth on SiC(0001), is distinguished by helical metallic edge states that are protected by a groundbreaking 8…
