Correlation between Bulk Thermodynamic Measurements and the Low-Temperature-Resistance Plateau in SmB_{6}

Correlation between Bulk Thermodynamic Measurements and the Low-Temperature-Resistance Plateau in SmB_{6}

Topological insulators are materials characterized by dissipationless, spin-polarized surface states resulting from nontrivial band topologies. Recent theoretical models and experiments suggest that SmB_{6} is the first topological Kondo insulator, in which the topologically nontrivial band structur...
