7 Quest for ideal topological insulators complex materials with d-& f-orbitals candidates for f-orbital topological insulators FeSb 2, SmB 6, YbB 12, YbB 6 & Ce 3 Bi 4 Pt 3

8 f-orbital insulators: Anderson lattice model conduction electrons (s,p,d orbitals) f-electrons 2J+ 1 tetragonal crystal field 2J+ 1 cubic crystal field

9 f-orbital insulators: Anderson lattice model conduction electrons (s,p,d orbitals) f-electrons hybridization: matrix element Non-local hybridization odd functions of k Strong spin-orbit coupling is encoded in hybridization

18 Interacting electrons: Kondo insulators Anderson model: infinite-u limit Projection (slave-boson) operators: Constraint: infinite-u limit: hamiltonian mean-field approximation:

19 Kondo insulators: mean-field theory self-consistency equations: mean-field Hamiltonian: renormalized position of the f-level

20 Kondo insulators: mean-field theory mean-field Hamiltonian: L. Fu & C. Kane, PRB 76, (2007) parity renormalized position of the f-level time-reversal P-inversion odd form factor high symmetry points of the Brillouin zone

21 Tetragonal Topological Kondo Insulators Z 2 invariants: strong : 3 weak : tetragonal symmetry: Kramers doublet BI STI WTI Strong mixed valence favors strong topological insulator! jour-ref: Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, (2010)

22 Strong Topological Kondo Insulators BI STI WTI Q: What factors are important for extending strong topological insulating state to the local moment regime(n f 1)? A: Degeneracy = high symmetry (cubic!)

23 Topological Kondo Insulators: Large-N theory Replicate Kramersdoublet Ntimes: SU(2) -> SP(2N) SU(2) -> SP(2N): time-reversal symmetry is preserved control parameter: 1/2N M. Dzero, Europhys. Jour. B 85, 297 (2012)

24 Cubic Topological Kondo Insulators Cubic symmetry (quartet): SmB 6 T. Takimoto, Jour. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 80, (2011) V. Alexandrov, M. Dzero, P. Coleman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, (2013) Antonov,Harmon,Yaresko, PRB (2006) 4d 5f V. Alexandrov, M. Dzero, P. Coleman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, (2013) Bands must invert X or M high symmetry points

25 Cubic Topological Kondo Insulators Cubic symmetry (quartet): SmB 6 4d 5f BI STI V. Alexandrov, M. Dzero, P. Coleman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, (2013)) Cubic symmetry protects strong topological insulator!

26 Mean-field theory for SmB 6 : is N=1/4 small enough? integrated spectral weight of the gap: T-dependence full insulating gap: dependence on pressure Derret al. PRB 77, (2008) Nyhus, Cooper, Fisk, Sarrao, PRB 55, (1997) Mean-field-like onset of the insulating gap!

27 Cubic Topological Kondo Insulators: surface states Bulk Hamiltonian: Assumption: boundary has little effect on the bulk parameters, i.e. mean-field theory in the bulk still holds with open boundaries

28 Cubic Topological Kondo Insulators: surface states effective surface Hamiltonian: Fermi velocities are small: surface electrons are heavy

29 Cubic Topological Kondo Insulators: surface states three Dirac cones: Gamma point, other X points no surface potential Surface potential has two effects: band bending: surface carriers are light! Dirac point moves into the valence band: confirmed by ARPES experiments!

30 What makes topological Kondo insulators special? Q: Are topological Kondo insulators adiabatically connected to topological band insulators? A: NO! Gap closes as the strength of U gradually increases Jan Wernerand FakherF. Assaad, PRB 88, (2013)

31 SmB 6 : potential candidate for correlated TI

32 SmB 6 : experiments Q: Can we establish that SmB 6 hosts helical surface states with Dirac spectrum while relying on experimental data only? (1) transport is limited to the surface (2) time-reversal symmetry breaking leads to localization (3) strong spin-orbit coupling = helicity (4) Dirac spectrum

33 Idea: pass the current and measure voltage drop surface transport bulk transport S. Wolgastet al., PRB 88, T < 5K transport comes from the surface ONLY!

34 Idea: Ohm s law in ideal topo insultor resistivity is independent of sample s thickness: surface transport Resistivity ratio Thickness independent! D. J. Kim, J. Xia & Z. Fisk, Nat. Comm. (2014)

35 SmB 6 : transport experiments Non-magnetic ions (Y) on the surface: time-reversal symmetry is preserved X e e No backscattering Magnetic ions (Gd) on the surface: time-reversal symmetry is broken e Localization e Kim, Xia & Fisk, arxiv:

36 SmB 6 : quantum oscillations experiments Idea:zero-energy Landau level exists for Dirac electrons: Experimental consequence: shift in Landau index nmust be observed only E 0 =0 contributes at infinite magnetic field! very light effective mass: m e Strong surface potential! G. Li et al. (Li Lu group Ann Arbor) arxiv:

37 SmB 6 : weak anti-localization (WAL) Weak SO coupling -> WL Strong SO coupling -> WAL

38 SmB 6 : weak anti-localization *diffusion (classical) conductivity is field-independent S. Thomas et al. arxiv:

39 Conclusion & open questions Role of correlations? Topological Kondo insulators from artificial structures? [Can we increase the which only surface is conducting?] Why all Kondo insulators have cubic symmetry? [Kondo semimetals have tetragonal symmetry] Pressure- or chemical substitution-driven superconductivity? effect magnetic vs. non-magnetic doping on the magnitude of surface conductivity surface conductance & insulating bulk below 5K SmB 6 is a correlated topological insulator quantum oscillations experiments confirm Dirac Dirac spectrum of surface electrons weak anti-localization: strong SO coupling
