摘要:

二维量子自旋霍尔绝缘体(QSHI)的兴起引起了人们的极大兴趣,其中一维螺旋边缘态是QSHI的标志,被广泛认为是下一代光电子学的一个有前途的平台。然而,1D边缘状态的动力学尚未在实验上得到解决。在这里,我们报告的光学响应的拓扑螺旋边态的a-Bi 4 Br 4,使用红外泵浦红外探针显微光谱的观察。值得注意的是,我们观察到的螺旋边缘态的载流子寿命达到纳秒级在室温下,这是大约2 - 3个数量级以上的大多数二维拓扑表面状态,甚至是现代工业中使用的发展良好的光电子半导体相媲美。拓扑边缘态的超长载流子寿命可能归因于它们的螺旋和一维性质。我们的发现不仅为进一步研究一维螺旋边态的载流子动力学提供了理想的材料,而且为其在光电子学中的应用铺平了道路。

英文摘要:

The rising of quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHI) in two-dimensional (2D) systems has been attracting significant interest in current research, for which the 1D helical edge states, a hallmark of QSHI, are widely expected to be a promising platform for next-generation optoelectronics. However, the dynamics of the 1D edge states has not yet been experimentally addressed. Here, we report the observation of optical response of the topological helical edge states in a-Bi4Br4, using the infrared-pump infrared-probe microscopic spectroscopy. Remarkably, we observe that the carrier lifetime of the helical edge states reaches nanosecond-scale at room temperature, which is about 2 - 3 orders longer than that of most 2D topological surface states and is even comparable with that of the well developed optoelectronics semiconductors used in modern industry. The ultralong carrier lifetime of the topological edge states may be attributed to their helical and 1D nature. Our findings not only provide an ideal material for further investigations of the carrier dynamics of 1D helical edge states but also pave the way for its application in optoelectronics.
