Energy Transport in Bi-Te-Se Topological Insulators
Presentation Materials | 21 Mar 2019 | Contributor(s):: Shouyuan Huang, Vasudevan Iyer, Xianfan Xu
Topological insulators (TIs) are a new phase of material that allows metallic conducting electrons at its surface while the bulk is insulating. Besides, the topological surface electrons’ spin orientation is always locked perpendicular to its moving direction, called...
