Topological Insulators (eBook, PDF)

The Physics of Spin Helicity in Quantum Transport
Redaktion: Tkachov, Gregory

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book is the result of dynamic developments that have occurred in condensed matter physics after the recent discovery of a new class of electronic materials: topological insulators. A topological insulator is a material that behaves as a band insulator in its interior, while acting as a metallic conductor at its surface. The surface current car

Autorenporträt

Grigory Tkachov received his PhD from the I. M. Lifshitz Theoretical Physics Department of V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University, Ukraine, in 1999. His postdoctoral studies began at Lancaster University under the aegis of the Royal Society of the UK and continued at Regensburg University and the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden, Germany. Currently, Dr. Tkachov is a senior research fellow in the Chair of Mesoscopic Physics at the University of Wuerzburg, Germany. His main research area is theoretical condensed matter physics with focus on topological phases of matter, macroscopic quantum phenomena, and novel nanomaterials. Dr. Tkachov is an author of over 50 scholarly publications.
