| Description: | [DPS Colloquium] Prof. Sumathi Rao (HRI, Allahabad) -- Topotronics : transport in topological materials |
| Date: | Thursday, Jul 28, 2016 |
| Time: | 2 p.m. - 3 p.m. |
| Venue: | G02, Lecture Hall Complex |
| Details: | In this colloquium, I will give a brief introduction to the basic ideas of topological materials, from the quantum Hall effect to its generalisation to the quantum spin Hall effect and time-reversal invariant topological insulators. Then I will discuss the relevance of Dirac materials in condensed matter systems, leading upto novel materials such as Weyl semi-metals. Finally, I will give a brief summary of some of our recent work in this field. |
