Hyeonjin Doh, Gun Sang Jeon

摘要:

我们研究了二维拓扑绝缘体中边缘态的性质。基于Kane-Mele模型,导出了锯齿形边界半无限蜂窝晶格中边态能量和边态有效宽度的耦合方程.结果表明,在一维布里渊区中,边缘态通过边缘态宽度的分叉并入体态的连续带。我们讨论了实验结果的影响,在单层或薄膜的拓扑绝缘体。

英文摘要:

We examine the properties of edge states in a two-dimensional topological insulator. Based on the Kane-Mele model, we derive two coupled equations for the energy and the effective width of edge states at a given momentum in a semi-infinite honeycomb lattice with a zigzag boundary. It is revealed that, in a one-dimensional Brillouin zone, the edge states merge into the continuous bands of the bulk states through a bifurcation of the edge-state width. We discuss the implications of the results to the experiments in monolayer or thin films of topological insulators.
