The surface orientation dependence on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance
of topological crystalline insulator (TCI) SnTe thin films is studied. Their intrinsic activities are …

Topological insulators exhibit a new variety of unusual phenomena associated with
topologically protected gapless surface states. Interestingly, most topological insulators are …

Supercapacitors are highly attractive in the large-scale energy storage field, but the “trade-
off” between the gravimetric capacitance and the volume and area specific capacitance …

In this work, a novel heterostructure consisting of different lattice structures with zincblende
ZnTe and rock-salt PbTe is proposed. The PbTe/ZnTe heterostructures are grown by …

Lanthanide (Ln) elements Gd and Yb alloyed with a Pb monolayer on the Si (111) substrate
form LnPb3 compounds having the same crystal structure. They comprise a single-atom …

Abstract Cadmium arsenide (Cd3As2) has recently attracted considerable interest for the
presence of 3D massless Dirac fermions with ultrahigh mobility and magnetoresistance …

As the first experimentally established topological crystalline insulator (TCI), SnTe also
exhibits superior thermoelectricity upon proper doping; yet to date, whether such doping will …

In this work, we performed magnetotransport measurements in an n-type single quantum
well (QW) grown by molecular beam epitaxy and found that, under illumination, the QW …

Under applied high pressure, the electronic, optical, structural, and other properties of
narrow-bandgap telluride semiconductors are subjected to dramatic changes. They can …

High-order topological charge is of intensive interest in the field of topological matter. In real
materials, a cubic Dirac point is rare, and the chiral charge of one Weyl point (WP) has never …
