1. Identifying Dimensionality of Periodic Crystals

   03 Feb 2020 | Contributor(s):: Franco Vera, Joshua Thomas Paul, Richard Hennig, Nancy Ruzycki

   Today, researchers worldwide have identified over 100,000 distinct bulk materials. The underlying dimensionality of these materials is not always clear however, and as such researchers have sought to identify stable, lower dimensional materials derived from the bulk parent structures. A team of...

2. Energy Transport in Bi-Te-Se Topological Insulators

   21 Mar 2019 | | Contributor(s):: Shouyuan Huang, Vasudevan Iyer, Xianfan Xu

   Topological insulators (TIs) are a new phase of material that allows metallic conducting electrons at its surface while the bulk is insulating. Besides, the topological surface electrons’ spin orientation is always locked perpendicular to its moving direction, called...
