Description: Optical Properties of Bismuth-Based Topological Insulators : Doctoral Thesis Accepted by the Technical University "Sapienza" of Rome, Italy, Hardcover by Di Pietro, Paola, ISBN 3319019902, ISBN-13 9783319019901, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Topological Insulators (TIs)are insulators in the bulk, but have exotic metallic states at their surfaces. The topology, associated with the electronic wavefunctions of these systems, changes when passing from the bulk to the surface. This workstudies, by means of infrared spectroscopy, the low energy optical conductivity of Bismuth based TIs in order to identify the extrinsic charge contribution of the bulk and to separate it from the intrinsic contribution of thesurface statecarriers. The extensive results presented in this thesis definitely shows the 2D character of the carriers in Bismuth-based topological insulators. The experimental apparatus and the FTIR technique, the theory of optical properties and Surface Plasmon Polaritons, as well as sample preparation of both crystals and thin films, and the analysis procedures are thoroughlydescribed.
