Topological insulators with inversion symmetry
Liang Fu,Charles L. Kane +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the parity of the occupied Bloch wave functions at the time-reversal invariant points in the Brillouin zone greatly simplifies the problem of evaluating the topological invariants.

Topological Insulator Materials
TL;DR: Topological insulators represent a new quantum state of matter which is characterized by peculiar edge or surface states that show up due to a topological character of the bulk wave functions.

TL;DR: It is directly shown that Bi2Te3 is a large spin-orbit-induced indirect bulk band gap semiconductor whose surface is characterized by a single topological spin-Dirac cone, and it is demonstrated that the dynamics of spin- Dirac fermions can be controlled through systematic Mn doping.

Chemical bonding in bismuth telluride
J.R. Drabble,C.H.L. Goodman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a model for the chemical bondins in bismuth telluride is proposed, which appears to dispose of some of the difficulties involved in earlier models, and is used to explain some properties of BTE and its alloys with BTE.
