Hydrogen-doping of Bi2Se3 nanoparticles has provided a rare opportunity to study the surface state of a topological insulator by means of electron spin resonance (ESR) and static magnetization measurements. As a result, a weak surface electron-phonon coupling in the topological insulator Bi2Se3 nanoparticles was revealed by ESR signals that were attributed to the surface conduction electrons.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
