- Аннотация: Topological insulator represents an unconventional quantum phase of matter with insulating bulk band gap and metallic surface states. Recent theoretical prediction and photoemission spectroscopy measurements show that group V-VI materials Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3, Sb2Te3 and more complicate compounds as Bi2Te2Se are TIs with a single Dirac cone due to the surface states. These materials have anisotropic, layered structures, in which five atomic layers are covalently bonded to form a quintuple layer, and quintuple layers interact weakly through van der Waals interaction to form the crystal. A few quintuple layers of these materials are predicted to exhibit interesting surface properties. Here we report the synthesis and characterizations of ultrathin Bi2Te2Se nanoplates with thickness down to a few nm (a few quintuple layers) and lateral dimension is about (300-100) nm, via catalyst-free vapor-solid growth mechanism [1-3]. As a new member of TI nanomaterials, ultrathin TI nanoplates have an extremely large surface-to-volume ratio and can be electrically gated more effectively than the bulkform, potentially enhancing surface state effects in transport measurements. Low-temperature transport measurements of a single nanoplate device, demonstrate the superconducting proximity effect in nanoplate of topological insulator (Bi2Te2Se) which is interfaced with superconducting (niobium) contacts. On dI/dV curves we observe the effects which can be linked with a multiple Andreev reflections for channel lengths that are much longer than the inelastic and diffusive thermal lengths deduced from normal state transport.
