Journal ArticleDOI
Topological insulators and superconductors
Xiao-Liang Qi,Shou-Cheng Zhang +1 more
TL;DR: Topological superconductors are new states of quantum matter which cannot be adiabatically connected to conventional insulators and semiconductors and are characterized by a full insulating gap in the bulk and gapless edge or surface states which are protected by time reversal symmetry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum Spin Hall Effect and Topological Phase Transition in HgTe Quantum Wells
TL;DR: In this article, the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect can be realized in mercury-cadmium telluride semiconductor quantum wells, a state of matter with topological properties distinct from those of conventional insulators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topological insulators in Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3 and Sb2Te3 with a single Dirac cone on the surface
TL;DR: In this article, first-principles electronic structure calculations of the layered, stoichiometric crystals Sb2Te3, Bi2Se3, SbSe3 and BiSe3 were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The quantum phase transition at the critical thickness, d = 6.3 nanometers, was independently determined from the magnetic field–induced insulator-to-metal transition, providing experimental evidence of the quantum spin Hall effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Observation of the Quantum Anomalous Hall Effect in a Magnetic Topological Insulator

TL;DR: The observation of the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect in thin films of chromium-doped (Bi,Sb)2Te3, a magnetic topological insulator shows a plateau in the Hall resistance as a function of the gating voltage without any applied magnetic fields, signifying the achievement of the QAH state.
