Surface versus bulk state in topological insulator Bi2Se3 under environmental disorder

M Brahlek, YS Kim, N Bansal, E Edrey, S Oh - Applied Physics Letters, 2011 - pubs.aip.org
Topological insulators (TIs) are predicted to be composed of an insulating bulk state along
with conducting channels on the boundary of the material. In Bi2Se3, however, the Fermi …
