This review elaborates pedagogically on the fundamental concept, basic theory, expected
properties, and materials realizations of topological superconductors. The relation between …

In this review, we discuss recent progress in the explorations of topological materials
beyond topological insulators; specifically, we focus on topological crystalline insulators and …

In condensed matter physics, spontaneous symmetry breaking has been a key concept, and
discoveries of new types of broken symmetries have greatly increased our understanding of …

Superconductivity in topological materials has drawn significant interest from the scientific
community as these materials provide a hint of the existence of Majorana fermions …

The search for unconventional superconductivity has been focused on materials with strong
spin-orbit coupling and unique crystal lattices. Doped bismuth selenide (Bi 2 Se 3) is a …

What kind of information on the electrons' organisation in solids is yielded by measuring
their thermoelectric response? Fundamentals of Thermoelectricity gives an account of our …

Cu x Bi 2 Se 3 was recently proposed as a promising candidate for time-reversal-invariant
topological superconductors. In this work, we argue that the unusual anisotropy of the Knight …

Recently it was demonstrated that Sr intercalation provides a new route to induce
superconductivity in the topological insulator Bi 2 Se 3. Topological superconductors are …

Nematic superconductivity is a novel class of superconductivity characterized by
spontaneous rotational-symmetry breaking in the superconducting gap amplitude and/or …

The recently discovered Dirac and Weyl semimetals are new members of topological
materials. Starting from them, topological superconductivity may be achieved, eg, by carrier …
