Three-dimensional (3D) topological Dirac semimetals (TDSs) are rare but important as a
versatile platform for exploring exotic electronic properties and topological phase transitions …

Injection of a spin current into the surface or interface states of a topological insulator (TI)
induces a charge current (inverse Edelstein effect or IEE) and, inversely, a charge current …

Stanene (single-layer gray tin), with an electronic structure akin to that of graphene but
exhibiting a much larger spin-orbit gap, offers a promising platform for room-temperature …

Abstract α‐Sn provides an ideal avenue to investigate novel topological properties owing to
its rich diagram of topological phases and simple elemental material structure. Thus far …

An atomic layer of tin in a buckled honeycomb lattice, termed stanene, is a promising large-
gap two-dimensional topological insulator for realizing room-temperature quantum-spin-Hall …

Gray tin, also known as α-Sn, can be turned into a three-dimensional topological insulator
(3D-TI) by strain and finite-size effects. Such room-temperature 3D-TI is peculiarly interesting …

Spin–orbitronics is based on the ability of spin–orbit interactions to achieve the conversion
between charge currents and pure spin currents. As the precise evaluation of the conversion …

Majorana zero modes, with prospective applications in topological quantum computing, are
expected to arise in superconductor/semiconductor interfaces, such as β-Sn and InSb …

We report on the electronic structure of α-Sn films in the very low thickness regime grown on
InSb (111) A. High-resolution low photon energy angle-resolved photoemission …

In-plane compressively strained α-Sn films have been theoretically predicted and
experimentally proven to possess non-trivial electronic states of a 3D topological Dirac …
