Topological Phase Transition and Texture Inversion in a Tunable Topological Insulator

Su-Yang Xu, Y. Xia, L. A. Wray +9

The recently discovered three dimensional or bulk topological insulators are expected to exhibit exotic quantum phenomena. It is believed that a trivial insulator can be twisted in…

Direct observation of spin-polarized surface states in the parent compound of topological insulator Bi-Sb using spin-resolved-ARPES in a 3D Mott-polarimetry spin mode

D. Hsieh, Y. Xia, L. Wray +9

We report high-resolution spin-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (Spin-ARPES) measurements on the parent compound Sb of the first discovered 3D topological insulator Bi{1-x}Sb{x}…

Realization of an isolated Dirac node and strongly modulated Spin Texture in the topological insulator Bi2Te3

Su-Yang Xu, L. A. Wray, Y. Xia +12

The development of spin-based applications of topological insulators requires the knowledge and understanding of spin texture configuration maps as they change via gating in the vi…

Observation of Topological Order in the TlBiSe2 class : Probing the "spin" and "phase" on topological insulator surfaces

Su-Yang Xu, L. A. Wray, Y. Xia +9

A topological insulator is characterized by spin-momentum locking on its boundary. The spin momentum locking on the surface of a three dimensional topological insulator leads to th…

The Structural Influence on the Rashba-type Spin-Splitting in Surface Alloys

Isabella Gierz, Benjamin Stadtmüller, Johannes Vuorinen +5

The Bi/Ag(111), Pb/Ag(111), and Sb/Ag(111) surface alloys exhibit a two-dimensional band structure with a strongly enhanced Rashba-type spin-splitting, which is in part attributed…

First observation of Spin-Momentum Helical Locking in Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3, demonstration of Topological-Order at 300K and a realization of topological-transport-regime

D. Hsieh, Y. Xia, D. Qian +14

Both the theoretical and experimental discovery of single-Dirac-cone topological-insulator-class was reported at arXiv:0812.2078 (2008) [Y. Xia et.al., Nature Physics 5, 398-402 (2…

Observation of topologically protected Dirac spin-textures and πBerry's phase in pure Antimony (Sb) and topological insulator BiSb

D. Hsieh, Y. Xia, L. Wray +10

A topologically ordered material is characterized by a rare quantum organization of electrons that evades the conventional spontaneously broken symmetry based classification of con…

Time-reversal-protected single-Dirac-cone topological-insulator states in Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3: Topologically Spin-polarized Dirac fermions with pi Berry's Phase

D. Hsieh, Y. Xia, D. Qian +12

We show that the strongly spin-orbit coupled materials Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3 (first non-Bi topological insulator) and their derivatives belong to the Z2 (Time-Reversal-Protected, elast…

First observation of spin-helical Dirac fermions and topological phases in undoped and doped Bi2Te3 demonstrated by spin-ARPES spectroscopy

D. Hsieh, Y. Xia, D. Qian +12

Electron systems that possess light-like dispersion relations or the conical Dirac spectrum, such as graphene and bismuth, have recently been shown to harbor unusual collective sta…
