Dimensional engineering of a topological insulating phase in Half-Heusler LiMgAs

Abstract We propose a novel technique of dimensional engineering to realize low dimensional topological insulator from a trivial three dimensional parent. This is achieved by confining the bulk system to one dimension along a particular crystal direction, thus enhancing the quantum confinement effec...
