SUMMARY:Scotch Tape and Spectroscopy: An excellent combination for Topologi
 cal Insulators – Kenneth Burch\, UofT
DESCRIPTION:Kenneth Burch\, Department of Physics\, University of Toronto\,
  Toronto\, ON\, CanadaRecently there has been a great deal of interest in 
 studying the surfaces of materials with topologically non-trivial electron
 ic states. These states enable not only new physical effects\, but provide
  a new tool to spintronics and quantum computation. Despite the intense ex
 perimental efforts to study these compounds\, the origin of the suppressio
 n of charge transport from the surface states remains a mystery. Towards t
 his end\, I will discuss our groups efforts to better understand the surfa
 ce state charge transport using optical spectropy. In addition I will deta
 il a new method we have devised that enables us to produce high temperatu
 re superconductivity in a topological insulator via the proximity effect\
 , which may lead to new routes for quantum computation.Site web du groupe
