Emergent and Tunable Topological Surface States in Complementary Sb/Bi ₂ Te ₃ and Bi ₂ Te ₃ /Sb Thin-Film Heterostructures

Journal Article Li, Yao ; Bowers, John W. ; Hlevyack, Joseph A. ; ... - ACS Nano

Epitaxial thin-film heterostructures offer a versatile platform for realizing topological surface states (TSSs) that may be emergent and/or tunable by tailoring the atomic layering in the heterostructures. Here, as an experimental demonstration, Sb and Bi2Te3 thin films with closely matched inplane lattice constants are chosen to form two complementary heterostructures: Sb overlayers on Bi₂Te₃ (Sb/Bi₂Te₃) and Bi₂Te₃ overlayers on Sb (Bi₂Te₃/Sb), with the overlayer thickness as a tuning parameter. In the bulk form, Sb (a semimetal) and Bi₂Te₃ (an insulator) both host TSSs with the same topological order but substantially different decay lengths and dispersions, whereas ultrathin Sb and Bi₂Te₃more »« less

Topological Quantum Well States in Pb/Sb Thin-Film Heterostructures

Journal Article Li, Yao ; Chan, Yang-hao ; Hlevyack, Joseph A. ; ... - ACS Nano

Composite topological heterostructures, wherein topologically protected states are electronically tuned due to their proximity to other matter, are key avenues for exploring emergent physical phenomena. Particularly, pairing a topological material with a superconductor such as Pb is a promising means for generating a topological superconducting phase with exotic Majorana quasiparticles, but oft-neglected is the emergence of bulklike spin-polarized states that are quite relevant to applications. Using high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculations, we report the emergence of bulklike spin-polarized topological quantum well states with long coherence lengths in Pb films grown on the topological semimetal Sb. The results establish Pb/Sbmore »« less

Massive Suppression of Proximity Pairing in Topological ${({Bi}_{1 - x} {Sb}_{x})}_{2} {Te}_{3}$ Films on Niobium

Journal Article Hlevyack, Joseph A. ; Najafzadeh, Sahand ; Lin, Meng-Kai ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Interfacing bulk conducting topological Bi₂Se₃ films with s-wave superconductors initiates strong superconducting order in the nontrivial surface states. Yet, bulk insulating topological (Bi_1-xSb_x)₂Te₃ films on bulk Nb instead exhibit a giant attenuation of surface superconductivity, even for films only two-layers thick. This massive suppression of proximity pairing is shown by ultrahigh-resolution band mappings and by contrasting quantified superconducting gaps with those of heavily n-doped topological Bi₂Se₃/Nb. The results underscore the limitations of using superconducting proximity effects to realize topological superconductivity in nearly intrinsic systems.
