The massless Dirac fermions residing on the surface of three-dimensional topological
insulators are protected from backscattering and cannot be localized by disorder, but such …

We report a transport study of ultrathin Bi 2 Se 3 topological insulators with thickness from
one quintuple layer to six quintuple layers grown on sapphire by molecular beam epitaxy. At …

The newly discovered three-dimensional strong topological insulators (STIs) exhibit
topologically protected Dirac surface states,. Although the STI surface state has been …

Low-field magnetotransport measurements of topological insulators such as Bi 2 Se 3 are
important for revealing the nature of topological surface states by quantum corrections to the …

The two-dimensional surface of the three-dimensional topological insulator is in the
symplectic universality class and should exhibit perfect weak antilocalization reflected in …

With high quality topological insulator Bi 2 Se 3 thin films, we report thickness-independent
transport properties over wide thickness ranges. Conductance remained nominally constant …

We show that a number of transport properties in topological insulator (TI) Bi 2 Se 3 exhibit
striking thickness dependences over a range of up to five orders of thickness (3 nm–170 …

A hexagonal deformation of the Fermi surface of Bi 2 Se 3 has been for the first time
observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. This is in contrast to the general …

Dirac-like surface states on surfaces of topological insulators have a chiral spin structure that
suppresses backscattering and protects the coherence of these states in the presence of …

In ideal topological insulator (TI) films the bulk state, which is supposed to be insulating,
should not provide any electric coupling between the two metallic surfaces. However …
