A Short Course on Topological Insulators : Band Structure and Edge States in One and Two Dimensions
Cham : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2016
Abstract/Sommario:
This course-based primer provides newcomers to the field with a concise introduction to some of the core topics in the emerging field of topological insulators. The aim is to provide a basic understanding of edge states, bulk topological invariants, and of the bulk--boundary correspondence with as simple mathematical tools as possible. The present approach uses noninteracting lattice models of topological insulators, building gradually on these to arrive from the simplest one-dimension ...; [leggi tutto]
