Distinction between electron states formed at topological insulator interfaces with the trivial phase and vacuum
Abstract In this paper, we show that electron states formed in topological insulators at the interfaces topological phase–trivial phase and topological phase–vacuum may possess different properties. This is demonstrated on an example of heterostructures based on thick topological Hg1−x Cd x Te films...
