摘要:

利用磁红外光谱研究了InP衬底上(Bi,Sb)$_2$ Te $_3$薄膜的电荷动力学。从磁传输数据中,我们提取了三个不同的回旋共振(CR)的能量,都是明显的宽带法拉第旋转(FR)光谱。这一全面的FR-CR数据集,使我们能够隔离体状态的响应与薄膜的顶面和底面的本征表面状态。FR数据揭示了电子型和空穴型狄拉克费米子存在于我们的薄膜的相对表面上,这为观察拓扑绝缘体中的许多奇异量子现象铺平了道路。

英文摘要:

Using magneto-infrared spectroscopy, we have explored the charge dynamics of (Bi,Sb)$_2$Te$_3$ thin films on InP substrates. From the magneto-transmission data we extracted three distinct cyclotron resonance (CR) energies that are all apparent in the broad band Faraday rotation (FR) spectra. This comprehensive FR-CR data set has allowed us to isolate the response of the bulk states from the intrinsic surface states associated with both the top and bottom surfaces of the film. The FR data uncovered that electron- and hole-type Dirac fermions reside on opposite surfaces of our films, which paves the way for observing many exotic quantum phenomena in topological insulators.
