Abstract:
A substantial challenge in guiding elastic waves is the presence of reflection and scattering at sharp edges, defects, and disorder. Recently, mechanical topological insulators have sought to overcome this challenge by supporting back-scattering resistant wave transmission. In this paper, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a reconfigurable electroacoustic topological insulator exhibiting an analog to the quantum valley Hall effect (QVHE). Using programmable switches, this phononic structure allows for rapid reconfiguration of domain walls and thus the ability to control back-scattering resistant wave propagation along dynamic interfaces for phonons lying in static and finite-frequency regimes. Accordingly, a graphene-like polyactic acid (PLA) layer serves as the host medium, equipped with periodically arranged and bonded piezoelectric (PZT) patches, resulting in two Dirac cones at theKpoints. The PZT patches are then connected to negative capacitance external circuits to break inversion symmetry and create nontrivial topologically protected bandgaps. As such, topologically protected interface waves are demonstrated numerically and validated experimentally for different predefined trajectories over a broad frequency range.

Abstract:
In a magnetic topological insulator, nontrivial band topology combines with magnetic order to produce exotic states of matter, such as quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators and axion insulators. In this work, we probe quantum transport in MnBi2Te4 thin flakes—a topological insulator with intrinsic magnetic order. In this layered van der Waals crystal, the ferromagnetic layers couple antiparallel to each other; atomically thin MnBi2Te4, however, becomes ferromagnetic when the sample has an odd number of septuple layers. We observe a zero-field QAH effect in a five–septuple-layer specimen at 1.4 kelvin, and an external magnetic field further raises the quantization temperature to 6.5 kelvin by aligning all layers ferromagnetically. The results establish MnBi2Te4 as an ideal arena for further exploring various topological phenomena with a spontaneously broken time-reversal symmetry.

Abstract:
We discuss the magnetic and topological properties of bulk crystals and quasi–two-dimensional (quasi-2D) thin films formed by stacking intrinsic magnetized topological insulator (for example, Mn (SbxBi1−x)2X4with X = Se,Te) septuple layers and topological insulator quintuple layers in arbitrary order. Our analysis makes use of a simplified model that retains only Dirac cone degrees of freedom on both surfaces of each septuple or quintuple layer. We demonstrate the model’s applicability and estimate its parameters by comparing with ab initio density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. We then employ the coupled Dirac cone model to provide an explanation for the dependence of thin-film properties, particularly the presence or absence of the quantum anomalous Hall effect, on film thickness, magnetic configuration, and stacking arrangement, and to comment on the design of Weyl superlattices.

Abstract:
In this paper, we fabricated a PMMA sandwiched Bi2Te3 self-assembly layer as a saturable absorber device, which was used as a passive mode locker for ultrafast pulse generation at the telecommunication band. Nanosheets of Bi2Te3 as a bulk topological insulator were successfully synthesized through a solvothermal treatment and self-assemble method to form a thin film at a water-air interface. In order to transfer the Bi2Te3 self-assembly layer to the optical fiber end, we design a construction of two PMMA layers sandwiched self-assembly layer. By incorporating this saturable absorber into an erbium-doped fiber laser, femtosecond mode-locking operation was experimentally demonstrated. The output pulse width is about 505 fs. Our results indicate that PMMA sandwiched topological insulator layer structure could be an improvement technology in traditional PMMA transfer method and could be used as a long-term stable saturable absorber for the passively mode locking lasers.

Abstract:
The interplay of magnetism and topology is a key research subject in condensed matter physics, which offers great opportunities to explore emerging new physics, such as the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect, axion electrodynamics, and Majorana fermions. However, these exotic physical effects have rarely been realized experimentally because of the lack of suitable working materials. Here, we predict a series of van der Waals layered MnBi2Te4-related materials that show intralayer ferromagnetic and interlayer antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. We find extremely rich topological quantum states with outstanding characteristics in MnBi2Te4, including an antiferromagnetic topological insulator with the long-sought topological axion states on the surface, a type II magnetic Weyl semimetal with one pair of Weyl points, as well as a collection of intrinsic axion insulators and QAH insulators in even- and odd-layer films, respectively. These notable predictions, if proven experimentally, could profoundly change future research and technology of topological quantum physics.

Abstract:
The spin-polarized surface states of topological insulators (TIs) are attractive for applications in spintronics and quantum computing. A central challenge with these materials is to reliably tune the chemical potential of their electrons with respect to the Dirac point and the bulk bands. We demonstrate persistent, bidirectional optical control of the chemical potential of (Bi,Sb)2Te3thin films grown on SrTiO3. By optically modulating a space-charge layer in the SrTiO3substrates, we induce a persistent field effect in the TI films comparable to electrostatic gating techniques but without additional materials or processing. This enables us to optically pattern arbitrarily shapedp- andn-type regions in a TI, which we subsequently image with scanning photocurrent microscopy. The ability to optically write and erase mesoscopic electronic structures in a TI may aid in the investigation of the unique properties of the topological insulating phase. The gating effect also generalizes to other thin-film materials, suggesting that these phenomena could provide optical control of chemical potential in a wide range of ultrathin electronic systems.

Abstract:
Abstract The recently discovered antiferromagnetic topological insulator MnBi2Te4 hosts many exotic topological quantum phases such as the axion insulator and the Chern insulator. Here we report on systematic gate-voltage-dependent magneto-transport studies in six-septuple-layer MnBi2Te4. In the p-type carrier regime, we observe positive linear magnetoresistance (MR) when MnBi2Te4 is polarized in the ferromagnetic state by an out-of-plane magnetic field. Whereas in the n-type regime, distinct negative MR behaviors are observed. The behaviors of magnetoresistance in both regimes are highly robust against temperature up to the Néel temperature. Within the antiferromagnetic regime, the behavior of MR exhibits a transition from negative to positive under the control of gate voltage. The boundaries of the MR phase diagram can be explicitly marked by the gate-voltage-independent magnetic fields that characterize the processes of the spin-flop transition. The rich transport phenomena demonstrate the intricate interplay between topology, magnetism and dimensionality in MnBi2Te4.

Abstract:
Imaging a peculiar Fermi surface Running a current through a superconductor can cause the superconducting gap to close on a section of the Fermi surface. However, observing this segmented Fermi surface directly is tricky. To do so, Zhu et al . worked with a thin film of the topological insulator bismuth telluride placed on top of superconducting niobium diselenide. A small applied magnetic field caused a screening current, which in turn led to a segmented Fermi surface in the topological insulator layer. Using a scanning tunneling microscope, the researchers were able to map out this Fermi surface. —JS

Abstract:
The experimental realization of twisted bilayer graphene strongly pushed the inspection of bilayer systems. In this context, it was recently shown that a two layer Haldane model with a thirty degree rotation angle between the layers represents a higher order topological insulator, with zero-dimensional states isolated in energy and localized at the physical vertices of the nanostructure. We show, within a numerical tight binding approach, that the energy of the zero dimensional states strongly depends on the geometrical structure of the vertices. In the most extreme cases, once a specific band gap is considered, these bound states can even disappear just by changing the vertex structure.

Abstract:
Thin antimony layers adsorbed on bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) present an exciting topological insulator system. Much recent effort has been made to understand the synthesis and electronic properties of the heterostructure, particularly the migration of the topological surface states under adsorption. However, the intertwinement of the topological surface states of the pristine Bi2Se3 substrate with the Sb adlayer remains unclear. In this theoretical work, we apply density functional theory (DFT) to model heterostructures of single and double atomic layers of Sb on a bismuth selenide substrate. We thereby discuss established and alternative structural models, as well as the hybridization of topological surface states with the Sb states. Concerning the geometry, we reveal the possibility of structures with inverted Sb layers which are energetically close to the established ones. The formation energy differences are below 10 meV/atom. Concerning the hybridization, we trace the band structure evolution as a function of the adlayer-substrate distance. By following changes in the connection between the Kramers pairs, we extract a series of topological phase transitions. This allows us to explain the origin of the complex band structure, and ultimately complete our knowledge about this peculiar system.

Combining graphene with other novel layered materials is a possible way for engineering the band structure of charge carriers. Strong spin-orbit coupling in BiTeX compounds and the recent fabrication of a single layer of BiTeI points towards a feasible experimental realization of a Kane–Mele phase in graphene-based heterostructures. Here, we theoretically demonstrate the tunability of the topological phase of hybrid systems built from graphene and BiTeX (X = I, Br, Cl) layers by uniaxial in-plane tensile and out-of plane compressive strain. We show that structural stress inherently present in fabricated samples could induce a topological phase transition, thus turning the sample in a novel experimental realization of a time reversal invariant topological insulator.

Abstract:
Good specimen quality is a key factor in achieving successful scanning transmission electron microscope analysis. Thin and damage-free specimens are prerequisites for obtaining atomic-resolution imaging. Topological insulator single crystals and thin films in the chalcogenide family such as Sb2Te3 are sensitive to electron and ion beams. It is, therefore, challenging to prepare a lamella suitable for high-resolution imaging from these topological insulator materials using standard focused ion-beam instruments. We have developed a modified method to fabricate thin focused ion-beam (FIB) lamellae with minimal ion-beam damage and artifacts. The technique described in the current study enables the reliable preparation of high-quality transmission electron microscope (TEM) specimens necessary for studying ultra-thin surface regions. We have successfully demonstrated that the careful selection of FIB milling parameters at each stage minimizes the damage layer without the need for post-treatment.

Abstract:
Electronic band-gap is a key factor in applying two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators into room-temperature quantum spin Hall effect (QSH) spintronic devices. Employing pseudopotential plane-wave first-principles calculations, we investigate spin-orbit coupling (SOC) electronic structures of the novel 2D topological insulator series of antimony (Sb) and bismuth (Bi) monolayers (isolated double atomic layers) functionalized by organic-groups (methyl, amino and hydroxyl). Cohesive energies and phonon frequency dispersion spectra indicate that these organic-group decorated Sb and Bi monolayers possess structural stability in both energetic statics and lattice dynamics. The giant electronic band-gaps adequate for room-temperature applications are attributed to the effective SOC enhancement of group functionalization. The nontrivial topology of these novel 2D monolayer materials is verified by the Z2 invariant derived from wave-function parity and edge-states of their nanoribbons, which is prospective for QSH spintronic devices. The chemical functional group changes the p-orbital component of Fermi level electrons, leading to strong intra-layer spin-orbit coupling, opening a large band-gap of approaching 1.4 eV at Dirac-cone point and resulting in a global indirect band-gap of 0.75 eV, which, even underestimated, is adequate for room-temperature operations. Sb and Bi monolayers functionalized by organic groups are also predicted to maintain stable nontrivial topology under in-layer biaxial strain, which is suitable for epitaxy technology to realize QSH spintronic devices.

Full text
Abstract:
Using the frameworks of density functional theory, we found a new class of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators (TIs) in Pb2BiBrO6 and Pb2SeTeO6 double perovskites. Our ab initio theoretical calculations show that Pb2BiBrO6 and Pb2SeTeO6 are Z2 nontrivial, and their bandgaps are 0.390 eV and 0.181 eV, respectively. The topology comes from two mechanisms. Firstly, the band inversion occurs at Γ point in the absence of spin-orbit interactions and secondly, the bandgap is induced by the SOC. This results in a larger bandgap for this new class of topological insulators than conventional TI. In Pb2BiBrO6 double perovskites, our slab calculations confirm that the topology-protected surface metallic bands come from the BiBrO4 surface which means that one can build a transport device using Pb2BiBrO6 double perovskites with a PbO layer as an outmost protection layer. The mechanical stabilities such as bulk, shear, Young’s moduli, Poisson’s and Pugh’s ratio, longitudinal, transverse, and average sound velocity, together with Debye temperature are also studied. Our results show that these Pb2AA’O6 (A = Sb and Bi; A’ = Br and I) and Pb2SeTeO6 are mechanically stable.

Abstract:
Abstract We study the anomalous Josephson effect induced by magnetic misorientation of asymmetric s-wave superconductor (SC)/ferromagnet insulator (FI)/normal layer/FI/d-wave SC junctions on a surface of topological insulator (TI). For the out-of-plane case, the magnetic misorientation not only leads to anomalous Josephson effects, but also realizes state transitions. However, for the in-plane case, the state transitions do not turn up any more. In particular, the plateaus phenomenon for d xy -wave SC junction emerges all the time. In addition, in the context of the in-plane case, the supercurrent rectification can be modulated by the magnetic misorientation. These unique phenomena can be employed to identify different d-wave superconductivities of three-dimensional TI and manufacture the supercurrent devices with such functions as phase storing, rectification, and quantum computation.

Abstract:
Bi2Se3/Fe–Se heterostructures on Si(100) substrates have been prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering technique. The thickness of FeSe2 film is an important factor for the properties of Bi2Se3/Fe–Se heterostructures. Our Bi2Se3/Fe–Se heterostructural samples showed ferromagnetism, which increase with increasing thickness of FeSe2 layer. However, when the FeSe2 layer is as thin as 20 nm, superconductivity could be observed through magnetization measurements, due to the existence of superconducting Fe–Se. Thus the Bi2Se3/Fe–Se heterostructure provides an approach to achieve both ferromagnetism and superconductivity simultaneously in interface, as well as to realize the interplay between a superconductor and a topological insulator.

Abstract:
Many proposed experiments involving topological insulators (TIs) require spatial control over time-reversal symmetry and chemical potential. We demonstrate reconfigurable micron-scale optical control of both magnetization (which breaks time-reversal symmetry) and chemical potential in ferromagnetic thin films of Cr-(Bi,Sb)2Te3 grown on SrTiO3. By optically modulating the coercivity of the films, we write and erase arbitrary patterns in their remanent magnetization, which we then image with Kerr microscopy. Additionally, by optically manipulating a space charge layer in the underlying SrTiO3 substrates, we control the local chemical potential of the films. This optical gating effect allows us to write and erase p-n junctions in the films, which we study with photocurrent microscopy. Both effects are persistent and may be patterned and imaged independently on a few-micron scale. Dynamic optical control over both magnetization and chemical potential of a TI may be useful in efforts to understand and control the edge states predicted at magnetic domain walls in quantum anomalous Hall insulators.

Abstract:
We have optimized the growth conditions of the buffer layer for further deposition of Pb1−x SnxTe (x ≥ 0.4), which has the properties of a crystalline topological insulator. To this end, a three-component heterostructure consisting of CaF2, BaF2, and Pb0.7Sn0.3Te : In layers was formed and optimized on the Si(111) surface. The surface morphology of this structure was studied depending on the temperature growth regimes and the optimal combination of growth parameters was selected from the point of view of smoothness and crystalline quality.

Abstract:
The recent discovery of the interfacial superconductivity (SC) of the Bi2Te3/Fe1+yTe heterostructure has attracted extensive studies due to its potential as a novel platform for trapping and controlling Majorana fermions. Here we present studies of another topological insulator (TI)/Fe1+yTe heterostructure, Sb2Te3/Fe1+yTe, which also has an interfacial 2-dimensional SC. The results of transport measurements support that reduction of the excess Fe concentration of the Fe1+yTe layer not only increases the fluctuation of its antiferromagnetic (AFM) order but also enhances the quality of the SC of this heterostructure system. On the other hand, the interfacial SC of this heterostructure was found to have a wider-ranging TI-layer thickness dependence than that of the Bi2Te3/Fe1+yTe heterostructure, which is believed to be attributed to the much higher bulk conductivity of Sb2Te3that enhances indirect coupling between its top and bottom topological surface states (TSSs). Our results provide evidence of the interplay among the AFM order, itinerant carries from the TSSs, and the induced interfacial SC of the TI/Fe1+yTe heterostructure system.

Abstract The possibility of epitaxial growth of Pb0.7Sn0.3Te crystalline topological insulator films on the Si(111) surface was shown and epitaxial relations were found. It was shown that, depending on the growth temperature, it is possible to control not only the character of the morphology, but also, to a significant extent, the smoothness of the epitaxial layer surface, which is extremely important for further transport measurements of the films. Analysis of the grown films surface morphology made it possible to establish the average value of the height and lateral size of the terraces and islands forming Pb0.7Sn0.3Te surface.

Abstract:
Abstract A new kind of intrinsic magnetic topological insulator (MTI) MnBi2Te4 family has shed light on the observation of novel topological quantum effects such as the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE). However, strong anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) coupling and high carrier concentration in the bulk hinder practical applications. In closely related materials MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10, the interlayer magnetic coupling is greatly suppressed by Bi2Te3 layer intercalation. However, AFM is still the ground state in these compounds. Here, by magnetic and transport measurements, we demonstrate that a Sb substitutional dopant plays a dual role in MnBi6Te10, which can not only adjust the charge carrier type and concentration, but also induces the solid into a ferromagnetic (FM) ground state. The AFM ground state region, which is also close to the charge neutral point, can be found in the phase diagram of Mn(Sb x Bi1−x )6Te10 when x ∼ 0.25. An intrinsic FM-MTI candidate is thus demonstrated, which may take us a step closer to realizing a high-quality and high-temperature QAHE and related topological quantum effects in the future.
