Epitaxial growth of large-gap quantum spin Hall insulator on semiconductor surface
Miao Zhou, Wenmei Ming, Zheng Liu +3
Formation of topological quantum phase on conventional semiconductor surface is of both scientific and technological interest. Here, we demonstrate epitaxial growth of 2D topologic…
sd2 Graphene: Kagome Band in Hexagonal lattice
Miao Zhou, Zheng Liu, Wenmei Ming +2
Graphene, made of sp2 hybridized carbon, is characterized with a Dirac band, representative of its underlying 2D hexagonal lattice. Fundamental understanding of graphene has recent…
Exotic electronic states in the world of flat bands: from theory to material
Zheng Liu, Feng Liu, Yong-Shi Wu
It has long been noticed that special lattices contain single-electron flat bands (FB) without any dispersion. Since the kinetic energy of electrons is quenched in the FB, this hig…
Giant Rashba-Spin Splitting of Bi(111) Bilayer on Large Band Gap InSe
Wenmei Ming, Z. F. Wang, Feng Liu
Experimentally it is still challenging to epitaxially grow Bi(111) bilayer (BL) on conventional semiconductor substrate. Here, we propose a substrate of InSe(0001) with…
Tuning Transport Properties of Topological Edge States of Bi(111) Bilayer Film by Edge Adsorption
Z. F. Wang, Li Chen, Feng Liu
Based on first-principles and tight-binding calculations, we report that the transport properties of topological edge states of zigzag Bi(111) nanoribbon can be significantly tuned…
Formation of quantum spin Hall state on Si surface and energy gap scaling with strength of spin orbit coupling
Miao Zhou, Wenmei Ming, Zheng Liu +3
For potential applications in spintronics and quantum computing, it is desirable to place a quantum spin Hall insulator [i.e., a 2D topological insulator (TI)] on a substrate while…
