Millimetre-long transport of photogenerated carriers in topological insulators.

abstract：:Nanostructured silicon has generated a lot of interest in the past decades as a key material for silicon-based photonics. The low absorption coefficient makes silicon nanocrystals attractive as an active medium in waveguide structures, and their third-order nonlinear optical properties are crucial for the development ...

abstract：:In LaAlO(3)/SrTiO(3) heterointerfaces, charge carriers migrate from the LaAlO(3) to the interface in an electronic reconstruction. Magnetism has been observed in LaAlO(3)/SrTiO(3), but its relationship to the interface conductivity is unknown. Here we show that reconstruction is necessary, but not sufficient, for the ...
