Weyl Semimetal from the Honeycomb Array of Topological Insulator Nanowires
M. M. Vazifeh
We show that isolated Weyl nodes can arise in a system of parallel topological insulator nano-wires arranged in a honeycomb fashion. This introduces another theoretical example of…

Stability of Majorana Fermions in Proximity-Coupled Topological Insulator Nanowires
A. M. Cook, M. M. Vazifeh, M. Franz
It has been shown previously that a finite-length topological insulator nanowire, proximity-coupled to an ordinary bulk s-wave superconductor and subject to a longitudinal applied…

Spin Response of Electrons on the Surface of a Topological Insulator
M. M. Vazifeh, M. Franz
The surface of a topological insulator hosts a very special form of a quasi-two dimensional metallic system when it is embedded in a topologically trivial medium like the vacuum. T…
