Quantum Spin Hall effect in graphene

by José Luis Lado
Quantum Spin Hall effect in graphene
for All ages,
Arts presentations | All ages | 8 years ago | 5949 views
Rating:

The quantum spin Hall effect is a topological state of matter characterized by sustaining gapless chiral edge states together with an insulating bulk. This phase can be triggered out by applying strong magnetic fields in a graphene sample
