Magnetic quantum phase transition in Cr-doped Bi2(SexTe1-x)3 driven by the Stark effect

Zuocheng Zhang, Xiao Feng, Jing Wang +11

The interplay between magnetism and topology, as exemplified in the magnetic skyrmion systems, has emerged as a rich playground for finding novel quantum phenomena and applications…

The quantum spin Hall effect and topological insulators

Xiao-Liang Qi, Shou-Cheng Zhang

In topological insulators, spin-orbit coupling and time-reversal symmetry combine to form a novel state of matter predicted to have exotic physical properties.

Quantum Spin Hall Effect in Inverted Type II Semiconductors

Chaoxing Liu, Taylor L. Hughes, Xiao-Liang Qi +2

The quantum spin Hall (QSH) state is a topologically non-trivial state of quantum matter which preserves time-reversal symmetry; it has an energy gap in the bulk, but topologically…

An Exact SU(2) Symmetry and Persistent Spin Helix in a Spin-Orbit Coupled System

B. Andrei Bernevig, J. Orenstein, Shou-Cheng Zhang

Spin-orbit coupled systems generally break the spin rotation symmetry. However, for a model with equal Rashba and Dresselhauss coupling constant (the ReD model), and for the $[110]…

Effective Field Theory of Electron Motion in the Presence of Random Magnetic Flux

Shoucheng Zhang, Daniel Arovas

We construct a nonlinear model to describe a system of non-interacting electrons propagating in the presence of random magnetic flux. We find a term describing the long ranged…
