Spintronics and pseudospintronics in graphene and topological insulators. (2012, background): “Strong three-dimensional topological insulators [4][5][49] possess an odd number of 2D Dirac bands localized on the bulk material's surface.”
Multiferroic materials and magnetoelectric physics: symmetry, entanglement, excitation, and topology (2015, background): “The electromagnetic Lagrangian of a topological insulator, which has a form analogous to the theory of axion electrodynamics, contains a scalar product of electric field and magnetic field, E · B [481, 482].”
Tunable topological phononic crystals (2015, background): “Though topological insulators were first observed in electronic systems [3], the concept has been successfully extended to other wave systems because of similarities in the band structures of those systems.”
Near room-temperature formation of a skyrmion crystal in thin-films of the helimagnet FeGe. (2011, background): “Topological excitations in solids have been attracting much attention in anticipation of their application to new spin devices and quantum computing application”
