Spin- and Angle-resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy Study of the Quantum Spin Hall Insulator Bismuthene and its Precursor Phase
Niclas Tilgner, Andres David Peña Unigarro, Susanne Wolff +6
Recent studies have revealed that a confined bismuth layer at the graphene/SiC interface can be reversibly switched between a topologically trivial precursor phase and the quantum…
Solving the Phase Problem of Diffraction: X-ray Standing Waves Imaging on Bismuthene/SiC(0001)
Niclas Tilgner, Susanne Wolff, Serguei Soubatch +6
The phase retrieval problem is a fundamental shortcoming of all diffraction-based methods, arising from the inability to measure the phase of scattered waves. The (normal incidence…
Growth dynamics of graphene buffer layer formation on ultra-smooth SiC(0001) surfaces
Julia Guse, Stefan Wundrack, Marius Eckert +14
In this study the growth process of epitaxial graphene on SiC was investigated systematically. The transition from the initial buffer layer growth to the formation of the first mon…
Reversible Switching of the Environment-Protected Quantum Spin Hall Insulator Bismuthene at the Graphene/SiC Interface
Niclas Tilgner, Susanne Wolff, Serguei Soubatch +8
Quantum Spin Hall Insulators (QSHI) have been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally because they exhibit robust helical edge states driven by spin-orbit couplin…
