    Strong and Weak 3D Topological Insulators Probed by Surface Science Methods
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2020) Morgenstern, Markus; Pauly, Christian; Kellner, Jens; Liebmann, Marcus; Pratzer, Marco; Eschbach, Markus; Plucinski, Lukacz; Otto, Sebastian; Rasche, Bertold; Ruck, Michael; Richter, Manuel; Just, Sven; Lüpke, Felix; Voigtländer, Bert
    The contributions of surface science methods to discover and improve 3D topological insulator materials are reviewed herein, illustrated with examples from the authors’ own work. In particular, it is demonstrated that spin-polarized angular-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy is instrumental to evidence the spin-helical surface Dirac cone, to tune its Dirac point energy toward the Fermi level, and to discover novel types of topological insulators such as dual ones or switchable ones in phase change materials. Moreover, procedures are introduced to spatially map potential fluctuations by scanning tunneling spectroscopy and to identify topological edge states in weak topological insulators. © 2020 The Authors.

    Quantum Transport in Nanostructures of 3D Topological Insulators
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2020) Giraud, Romain; Dufouleur, Joseph
    Quantum transport measurement is an efficient tool to unveil properties of topological surface states in 3D topological insulators. Herein, experimental and theoretical results are reviewed, presenting first some methods for the growth of nanostructures. The effect of the disorder and the band bending is discussed in details both experimentally and theoretically. Then, the focus is put on disorder and quantum confinement effect in topological surface states of 3D topological insulators narrow nanostructures. Such effect can be revealed by investigating quantum interferences at very low temperature such as Aharonov–Bohm oscillations or universal conductance fluctuations. © 2020 The Authors.
