报告题目:Quantitative analysis of weak antilocalization effect of topological surface states in topological insulator BiSbTeSe2

报告时间/地点:11月10日,材料学院522室,上午9:00

 

AbstractIn topological insulators, the electrons’ spin in topological surface states (TSS) is locked to its momentum, which gives rise to a non-trivial  Berry phase after completing a time-reversed self-intersecting path adiabatically in the quantum diffusion regime. This non-trivial Berry phase could lead to quantum correction to the classical electronic conductivity in low magnetic fields, manifesting itself as a weak antilocalization (WAL) effect. Quantitative analysis of the WAL effect of TSS in topological insulators is of tremendous importance as it provides a strategic way to insight into the topological properties of the TSS. The major obstacle to achieve accurate results is how to eliminate the contribution of the anisotropic magnetoconductance of bulk states when the Fermi level lies in bulk bands. In this talk I will introduce an alternative approach for the quantitative analysis of the WAL effect of TSS in a more accurate way by measuring anisotropic magnetoconductance of topological insulator BiSbTeSe2 (BSTS). The anomalous conductance peaks in the parallel orientations are observed in anisotropic magnetoconductance curves, which are originated from the WAL effect of TSS of BSTS. By subtracting the anisotropic magnetoconductance of bulk states, the WAL effect of topological surface states can be well described by the Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka expression. Our findings offer an alternative avenue for the quantitative exploration of the WAL effect of TSS in topological insulators.
