Abstract:
An experimental study of a two-dimensional topological Anderson insulator based on HgTe quantum wells in submicron-sized samples has been carried out, in which both diffusion and quasi-ballistic transport modes along edge current states are implemented. A comparative analysis of these modes allowed us to obtain information about the scattering behavior along the edge state. It is established that the inclusion of a magnetic field does not lead to localization effects in the one-dimensional transport of edge states.
