      <description>arXiv: Bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) is a prototypical V-VI semiconductor of interest for both thermoelectric and topological applications; however, phase-selective synthesis and thermal stability across the bismuth-telluride homologous series remain poorly understood. We report a facile and phosphine-free colloidal synthesis…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Conventional gate-stack scaling reduces dielectric thickness and increases permittivity while largely treating the position and electronic character of the gate-side screening boundary as fixed. As equivalent oxide thickness is reduced, however, finite interfacial responses can increasingly constrain gate control…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Bulk-Rashba spin splitting is forbidden in tetradymite topological insulators like Bi₂Se₃ or Bi₂Te₃, since their quintuple-layer stacking preserves inversion symmetry. We show that BiSbTeSe₂ escapes this restriction: in the Se-Bi-Se-Sb-Te sequence, the structure loses its inversion center, reducing the point group…</description>
