Spin texture and ultrafast conversion of spin current to charge current with a topological insulator

Quantum materials, and in particular topological insulators, offer new prospects for more efficient electronics that consume less energy. These materials, such as the Bi1-xSbx alloy, are insulators in depth but have spin-polarised conduction states on their surface. They enable …
