Abstract

Prototypical 3D topological insulators of the Bi2Se3 family provide a beautiful example of the appearance of the surface states inside the bulk bandgap caused by spin-orbit coupling-induced topology. The surface states are protected against backscattering by time reversal symmetry, and exhibit spin-momentum locking whereby the electron spin is polarized perpendicular to the momentum, typically in ...
