Spin‐helical transport in normal and superconducting topological insulators
G Tkachov, EM Hankiewicz - physica status solidi (b), 2013 - Wiley Online Library
In a topological insulator (TI) the character of electron transport varies from insulating in the
interior of the material to metallic near its surface. Unlike, however, ordinary metals …

Scattering theory of topological insulators and superconductors
The topological invariant of a topological insulator (or superconductor) is given by the
number of symmetry-protected edge states present at the Fermi level. Despite this fact …

Experimental observation of a generalized Thouless pump with a single spin
Adiabatic cyclic modulation of a one-dimensional periodic potential will result in quantized
charge transport, which is termed the Thouless pump. In contrast to the original Thouless …
