Abstract:
Topological material is a new kind of matterwith time reversalsymmetry and novel quantum states and has become one of thehottesttopics in condensed-matter physics. In this talk, I will first discuss some quantum transport experiments including Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, weak anti-localization effect, and electron-electron interaction of surface electrons in 3D topological insulator Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3.Then, I will report ourrecentobservation of the negative magnetoresistancein parallel magnetic and electric fields, manifestation of the chiral anomaly, in topological Dirac semimetal Cd3As2. Finally, I will briefly describe our research on superconducting proximity effect in topologicalinsulator/superconductors (Bi2Te3/Nb and Bi2Se3/NbSe2) hybrid structures.
