Surface-state spin textures in strained bulk HgTe: strain-induced topological phase transitions
Frank Kirtschig, Jeroen van den Brink, Carmine Ortix
The opening of a band gap due to compressive uniaxial strain renders bulk HgTe a strong three-dimensional topological insulators with protected gapless surface states at any surfac…
Topological classification of k.p Hamiltonians for Chern insulators
Frank Kirtschig, Jeroen van den Brink, Carmine Ortix
We proof the existence of two different topological classes of low-energy k.p Hamiltonians for Chern insulators. Using the paradigmatic example of single-valley two-band models, we…
Quantum collapses and revivals of a matter wave in the dynamics of symmetry breaking
Frank Kirtschig, Jorrit Rijnbeek, Jeroen van den Brink +1
Using the remarkable mathematical construct of Eugene Wigner to visualize quantum trajectories in phase space, quantum processes can be described in terms of a quasi-probability di…
