Observation of a large-gap topological-insulator class with a single Dirac cone on the surface

TL;DR: In this paper, an angle-resolved photo-emission spectroscopy study was conducted to reveal the first observation of a topological state of matter featuring a single surface Dirac cone realized in the naturally occurring Bi-2Se-3 class of materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

A topological Dirac insulator in a quantum spin Hall phase

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used incident-photon-energy-modulated angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (IPEM-ARPES) to locate the Kramers points at the sample's boundary and provide a comprehensive mapping of the Dirac insulator's gapless surface electron bands.
Journal ArticleDOI

A tunable topological insulator in the spin helical Dirac transport regime

TL;DR: The results reveal a spin-momentum locked Dirac cone carrying a non-trivial Berry’s phase that is nearly 100 per cent spin-polarized, which exhibits a tunable topological fermion density in the vicinity of the Kramers point and can be driven to the long-sought topological spin transport regime.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of Unconventional Quantum Spin Textures in Topological Insulators

TL;DR: Using Mott polarimetry, it is demonstrated that topological quantum numbers are completely determined from spin texture–imaging measurements and the origin of its topological order and unusual chiral properties are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superconductivity in CuxBi2Se3 and its implications for pairing in the undoped topological insulator.

TL;DR: It is shown that copper intercalation in the van der Waals gaps between the Bi2Se3 layers, yielding an electron concentration of approximately 2x10{20} cm{-3}, results in superconductivity at 3.8 K in CuxBi2 Se3 for 0.12
