Existence of zero-energy impurity states in different classes of topological insulators and superconductors and their relation to topological phase transitions

Lukas Kimme, Timo Hyart

We consider the effects of impurities on topological insulators and superconductors. We start by identifying the general conditions under which the eigenenergies of an arbitrary Ha…

Backscattering in helical edge states from a magnetic impurity and Rashba disorder

Lukas Kimme, Bernd Rosenow, Arne Brataas

Transport by helical edge states of a quantum spin Hall insulator is experimentally characterized by a weakly temperature-dependent mean free path of a few microns and by reproduci…
