Research Abstract

Despite of a huge effort for searching new topological materials carrying spin-helical Dirac fermions, mostly discovered are 3D materials by observing the surface state of topological insulator with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. While the 2D topological system was theoretically proposed for several thin-film systems, a realization of such materials has been limited to very few systems mainly due to the difficulty in observing 1D edge state. In this research project, we have performed high-resolution spin-resolved ARPES on several topological insulators and thin film systems in order to elucidate the expected 1D-edge state which would emerge on nano-ribbon structure with a non-trivial topological nature. We have successfully determined bulk and surface/edge electronic structure in several topological insulators and related materials.
