Abstract

The invention relates to a method for distinguishing a circularly polarized light induced current and a photon dragging current of a topological insulator Sb2Te3. According to the technical scheme, 1064 nm laser is irradiated on a sample after passing through a polarizer and a quarter-wave plate; the quarter-wave plate is rotated to generate periodically-changed polarized light; and a generated light current is fitted to extract the light current generated by circular polarized laser. Light currents generated by the circular polarized laser under different positive and negative incidence angles are measured; and by utilizing a characteristic that even function components of the circularly polarized light current and the photon dragging current have different parity symmetry, and by utilizing different dependence relations of odd function components of the circularly polarized light current and the photon dragging current to the incident angles, the circularly polarized light current and the photon dragging current are distinguished. The method disclosed by the invention is accurate in measurement result, is simple and feasible, is low in cost and is beneficial to the popularizationand application in the future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of spintronics, in particular to a method for distinguishing topological insulators Sb 2 Te 3 Circularly polarized photocurrent and photon dragging current methods. Background technique [0002] Topological insulators have attracted widespread attention due to their exotic physical properties and potential applications in quantum computing, spintronics and other fields. Sb 2 Te 3 It is a new type of three-dimensional topological insulator. Its surface state is a fully polarized Dirac electronic state, and the direction of its spin and momentum is locked. This surface state can greatly suppress the scattering of non-magnetic impurities, so its surface electrons have very high electron mobility. This makes surface states have very good application prospects in the fields of new electronic devices and quantum computing. [0003] Circularly polarized photocurrent technique (referred to as CPGE) is a very effective ...
