Topological Anderson Insulator

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2009
Disorder plays an important role in two dimensions, and is responsible for striking phenomena such as metal insulator transition and the integral and fractional quantum Hall effects. In this paper, we investigate the role of disorder in the context of the recently discovered topological insulator, which possesses a pair of helical edge states with ...

Bimorphic Floquet topological insulators

open access: yesNature Materials, 2022
Topological theories have established a new set of rules that govern the transport properties in a wide variety of wave-mechanical settings. In a marked departure from the established approaches that induce Floquet topological phases by specifically tailored discrete coupling protocols or helical lattice motions, we introduce a new class of bimorphic ...

Topological Insulators by Topology Optimization [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
An acoustic topological insulator (TI) is synthesized using topology optimization, a free material inverse design method. The TI appears spontaneously from the optimization process without imposing requirements on the existence of pseudo spin-1/2 states at the TI interface edge, or the Chern number of the topological phases. The resulting TI is passive;

Topological Hierarchy Insulators and Topological Fractal Insulators [PDF]

open access: yesEPL (Europhysics Letters), 2015
Topological insulators are new states of quantum matter with metallic edge/surface states. In this paper, we pointed out that there exists a new type of particle-hole symmetry-protected topological insulator - topological hierarchy insulator (THI), a composite topological state of a (parent) topological insulator and its defect-induced topological mid ...

Interacting Topological Insulators with Synthetic Dimensions

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2018
Recent developments of experimental techniques have given us unprecedented opportunities of studying topological insulators in high dimensions, while some of the dimensions are “synthetic,” in the sense that the effective lattice momenta along these ...

Towards layer-selective quantum spin hall channels in weak topological insulator Bi4Br2I2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Weak topological insulators, constructed by stacking quantum spin Hall insulators with weak interlayer coupling, offer promising quantum electronic applications through topologically non-trivial edge channels.

Optoelectronic devices, plasmonics, and photonics with topological insulators

open access: yesAPL Materials, 2017
Topological insulators are innovative materials with semiconducting bulk together with surface states forming a Dirac cone, which ensure metallic conduction in the surface plane.

Topological phase transition in chiral graphene nanoribbons: from edge bands to end states

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Graphene nanoribbons are potential systems for engineering topological phases of matter, but the pre-required gapped phases are difficult to find. Here, the authors show that chiral graphene nanoribbons undergo a transition from metallic to topological ...
