Interacting Surface States of Three-Dimensional Topological Insulators.
We numerically investigate the surface states of a strong topological insulator in the presence of strong electron-electron interactions. We choose a spherical topological insulator geometry to make the surface amenable to a finite size analysis. The single-particle problem maps to that of Landau orbitals on the sphere with a magnetic monopole at the center that has unit strength and opposite s...
متن کاملPseudo-time-reversal symmetry and topological edge states in two-dimensional acoustic crystals
We propose a simple two-dimensional acoustic crystal to realize topologically protected edge states for acoustic waves. The acoustic crystal is composed of a triangular array of core-shell cylinders embedded in a water host. By utilizing the point group symmetry of two doubly degenerate eigenstates at the Γ point, we can construct pseudo-time-reversal symmetry as well as pseudo-spin states in t...
متن کاملSurface states and topological invariants in three-dimensional topological insulators: Application to Bi1−xSbx
We study the electronic surface states of the semiconducting alloy bismuth antimony Bi1−xSbx . Using a phenomenological tight-binding model, we show that the Fermi surface for the 111 surface states encloses an odd number of time-reversal-invariant momenta TRIM in the surface Brillouin zone. This confirms that the alloy is a strong topological insulator in the 1;111 Z2 topological class. We go ...
متن کاملRadiative topological states in one-dimensional resonant photonic crystals
We present a theory of topological edge states in onedimensional resonant photonic crystals with compound unit cell. We demonstrate how the structure, despite being onedimensional, can be characterized by topological indices. Contrary to conventional electronic topological states the modes under consideration are radiative, i.e., they decay in time due to the light escape through the structure ...
متن کاملSurface acoustic waves in finite slabs of three-dimensional phononic crystals
We study theoretically, by means of layer-multiple-scattering techniques, the propagation of elastic waves through finite slabs of phononic crystals consisting of metallic spheres in a polyester matrix, embedded in air. In particular, we focus on the study of modes localized on the surfaces of the structure. Their origin and behavior, as well as the physical parameters that influence and determ...
