拓扑绝缘体表面的Dirac量子阱工程

Dirac quantum well engineering on the surface of topological insulator

Xin Lu, Mark-Oliver Goerbig

摘要:

我们研究了一个由薄的拓扑绝缘体夹在两个普通绝缘体之间的量子阱。更具体地说,我们考虑这些不同类型的材料之间的光滑界面,使接口主机不仅手征界面状态,其存在是由散装边缘对应,但也有大量的Pankratov-Pankratov状态。我们调查这些界面状态之间可能的杂交作为拓扑材料的宽度和特征界面尺寸的函数。最突出的是,我们发现一个非常弱的手征界面状态的影响和更常见的杂交的大规模Pankratov状态,可以很容易地理解在量子隧穿的框架中的(狄拉克)量子阱的模型,我们在这里介绍一个强大的质的区别。

英文摘要:

We investigate a quantum well that consists of a thin topological insulator sandwiched between two trivial insulators. More specifically, we consider smooth interfaces between these different types of materials such that the interfaces host not only the chiral interface states, whose existence is dictated by the bulk-edge correspondence, but also massive Volkov-Pankratov states. We investigate possible hybridization between these interface states as a function of the width of the topological material and of the characteristic interface size. Most saliently, we find a strong qualitative difference between an extremely weak effect on the chiral interface states and a more common hybridization of the massive Volkov-Pankratov states that can be easily understood in terms of quantum tunneling in the framework of the model of a (Dirac) quantum well we introduce here.
