Effects of disorder on electron tunneling through helical edge states
Pietro Sternativo, Fabrizio Dolcini
A tunnel junction between helical edge states, realized via a constriction in a Quantum Spin Hall system, can be exploited to steer both charge and spin current into various termin…

Tunnel junction of helical edge states: Determining and controlling spin-preserving and spin-flipping processes through transconductance
Pietro Sternativo, Fabrizio Dolcini
When a constriction is realized in a 2D quantum spin Hall system, electron tunneling between helical edge states occurs via two types of channels allowed by time-reversal symmetry,…
