Higher-Order Topological Insulators

TL;DR: The notion of three-dimensional topological insulators is extended to systems that host no gapless surface states but exhibit topologically protected gapless hinge states and it is shown that SnTe as well as surface-modified Bi2TeI, BiSe, and BiTe are helical higher-order topology insulators.

Higher-order topological insulators.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend the notion of three-dimensional topological insulators to systems that host no gapless surface states but exhibit topologically protected gapless hinge states.

Higher-Order Topology in Bismuth

TL;DR: In this paper, the electronic structure of bismuth, an element consistently described as bulk topologically trivial, is in fact topological and follows a generalized bulkboundary correspondence of higher-order: not the surfaces of the crystal, but its hinges host topologically protected conducting modes.

Higher-Order Topology in Bismuth.

TL;DR: It is established that the electronic structure of bismuth, an element consistently described as bulk topologically trivial, is in fact topological and follows a generalized bulk–boundary correspondence of higher-order: not the surfaces of the crystal, but its hinges host topologically protected conducting modes.

Majorana fermions in a topological-insulator nanowire proximity-coupled to an s -wave superconductor

TL;DR: In this article, a finite-length topological insulator nanowire, proximity-coupled to an ordinary bulk $s$-wave superconductor and subject to a longitudinal applied magnetic field, is shown to realize a one-dimensional topological superconductor with unpaired Majorana fermions localized at both ends.
