Electrically tunable spin filtering for electron tunneling between spin-resolved quantum Hall edge states and a quantum dot

Journal Article Kiyama, H., E-mail: kiyama@meso.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp ; Fujita, T. ; Teraoka, S. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

Spin filtering with electrically tunable efficiency is achieved for electron tunneling between a quantum dot and spin-resolved quantum Hall edge states by locally gating the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) leads near the tunnel junction to the dot. The local gating can change the potential gradient in the 2DEG and consequently the edge state separation. We use this technique to electrically control the ratio of the dot–edge state tunnel coupling between opposite spins and finally increase spin filtering efficiency up to 91%, the highest ever reported, by optimizing the local gating.

Helical Liquid and the Edge of Quantum Spin Hall Systems

Journal Article Wu, C - Physical Review Letters

The edge states of the recently proposed quantum spin Hall systems constitute a new symmetry class of one-dimensional liquids dubbed the 'helical liquid,' where the spin orientation is determined by the direction of electron motion. We prove a no-go theorem which states that a helical liquid with an odd number of components cannot be constructed in a purely 1D lattice system. In a helical liquid with an odd number of components, a uniform gap in the ground state can appear when the time-reversal symmetry is spontaneously broken by interactions. On the other hand, a correlated two-particle backscattering term by anmore »« less
Evidence of a room-temperature quantum spin Hall edge state in a higher-order topological insulator

Journal Article Shumiya, Nana ; Hossain, Md Shafayat ; Yin, Jia-Xin ; ... - Nature Materials

Room-temperature realization of macroscopic quantum phases is one of the major pursuits in fundamental physics. The quantum spin Hall phase is a topological quantum phase that features a two-dimensional insulating bulk and a helical edge state. Here we use vector magnetic field and variable temperature based scanning tunnelling microscopy to provide micro-spectroscopic evidence for a room-temperature quantum spin Hall edge state on the surface of the higher-order topological insulator Bi₄Br₄. Here, we find that the atomically resolved lattice exhibits a large insulating gap of over 200 meV, and an atomically sharp monolayer step edge hosts an in-gap gapless state, suggestingmore »« less
