摘要:

利用角分辨光电子能谱(ARPES)和输运测量研究了Bi $_2$ Te $_3$的表面态.通过扫描整个布里渊区(BZ),我们证明了表面态由一个以$Γ$点为中心的非简并狄拉克锥组成。此外,通过适当的空穴(Sn)掺杂来抵消来自空位和反位缺陷的本征n型掺杂,费米能级可以被调整为仅与表面态相交,指示体态的完整能隙,这与在传输性质中接近该掺杂的载流子符号变化一致。我们的实验结果第一次建立了Bi $_2$ Te $_3$是一个三维拓扑绝缘体的表面上的一个狄拉克锥,由最近的理论预测。

英文摘要:

We investigate the surface state of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and transport measurements. By scanning over the entire Brillouin zone (BZ), we demonstrate that the surface state consists of a single non-degenerate Dirac cone centered at the $Γ$ point. Furthermore, with appropriate hole (Sn) doping to counteract intrinsic n-type doping from vacancy and anti-site defects, the Fermi level can be tuned to intersect only the surface states, indicating a full energy gap for the bulk states, consistent with a carrier sign change near this doping in transport properties. Our experimental results establish for the first time that Bi$_2$Te$_3$ is a three dimensional topological insulator with a single Dirac cone on the surface, as predicted by a recent theory.
