One-dimensional helical liquids can appear at boundaries of certain condensed matter
systems. Two prime examples are the edge of a quantum spin Hall insulator and the hinge …

Two dimensional (2D) topological insulators (TIs) and topological superconductors (TSCs)
have been intensively studied for recent years due to their great potential for dissipationless …

We present transport and scanning SQUID measurements on InAs/GaSb double quantum
wells, a system predicted to be a two-dimensional topological insulator. Top and back gates …

We report on a class of quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHIs) in strained-layer InAs/GaInSb
quantum wells, in which the bulk gaps are enhanced up to fivefold as compared to the …

The electrons in the edge channels of two-dimensional topological insulators can be
described as a helical Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid. They couple to nuclear spins embedded …

Topology appears across condensed matter physics to describe a wide array of phenomena
which could alter, augment, or fundamentally change the functionality of many technologies …

We have investigated low-temperature electronic transport on InAs/GaSb double quantum
wells, a system which promises to be electrically tunable from a normal to a topological …

Josephson junctions defined in strong spin orbit semiconductors are highly interesting for
the search for topological systems. However, next to topological edge states that emerge in …

In this paper, we establish that Majorana zero modes emerging from a topological band
structure of a chain of magnetic atoms embedded in a superconductor can be distinguished …

The search for room temperature quantum spin Hall insulators (QSHIs) based on widely
available materials and a controlled manufacturing process is one of the major challenges of …
