Interplay of Dirac nodes and Volkov-Pankratov surface states in compressively strained HgTe

David M. Mahler, Julian-Benedikt Mayer, Philipp Leubner +8

Preceded by the discovery of topological insulators, Dirac and Weyl semimetals have become a pivotal direction of research in contemporary condensed matter physics. While easily ac…

Proximity Induced Superconductivity in CdTe-HgTe Core-Shell Nanowires

Jan Hajer, Maximilian Kessel, Christoph Brüne +3

In this letter we report on proximity superconductivity induced in CdTe-HgTe core-shell nanowires, a quasi-one-dimensional heterostructure of the topological insulator HgTe. We dem…

Interacting topological edge channels

Jonas Strunz, Jonas Wiedenmann, Christoph Fleckenstein +10

Electrical currents in a quantum spin Hall insulator are confined to the boundary of the system. The charge carriers can be described as massless relativistic particles, whose spin…

How to measure the entropy of a mesoscopic system via thermoelectric transport

Yaakov Kleeorin, Holger Thierschmann, Hartmut Buhmann +3

Entropy is a fundamental thermodynamic quantity indicative of the accessible degrees of freedom in a system. While it has been suggested that the entropy of a mesoscopic system can…

Dynamical separation of bulk and edge transport in HgTe-based 2D topological insulators

Matthieu C. Dartiailh, Simon Hartinger, Alexandre Gourmelon +11

Topological effects in edge states are clearly visible on short lengths only, thus largely impeding their studies. On larger distances, one may be able to dynamically enhance topol…
