Strong and Weak Three-Dimensional Topological Insulators Probed by Surface Science Methods

Markus Morgenstern, Christian Pauly, Jens Kellner +12

We review the contributions of surface science methods to discover and improve 3D topological insulator materials, while illustrating with examples from our own work. In particular…

Exploring the subsurface atomic structure of the epitaxially grown phase change material GeSbTe

J. Kellner, G. Bihlmayer, V. L. Deringer +7

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and spectroscopy (STS) in combination with density functional theory (DFT) calculations are employed to study the surface and subsurface propert…

Mapping the band structure of GeSbTe phase change alloys around the Fermi level

Jens Kellner, Gustav Bihlmayer, Marcus Liebmann +16

Phase change alloys are used for non-volatile random access memories exploiting the conductivity contrast between amorphous and metastable, crystalline phase. However, this contras…

$\mbox{Bi}_{1}\mbox{Te}_{1}$: a dual topological insulator

Markus Eschbach, Martin Lanius, Chengwang Niu +15

A combined theoretical and experimental study reveals evidence for the dual topological insulating character of the stoichiometric natural superlattice phase $\mathrm{Bi_{1}Te_{1}}…

Realization of a vertical topological p-n junction in epitaxial heterostructures

Markus Eschbach, Ewa Mlynczak, Jens Kellner +17

3D topological insulators are a new state of quantum matter which exhibits both a bulk band structure with an insulating energy gap as well as metallic spin-polarized Dirac fermion…

Tuning the Dirac point to the Fermi level in the ternary topological insulator (BiSb)Te

Jens Kellner, Markus Eschbach, Jörn Kampmeier +9

In order to stabilize Majorana excitations within vortices of proximity induced topological superconductors, it is mandatory that the Dirac point matches the Fermi level rather exa…
