Proposal for THz lasing from a topological quantum dot
Topological quantum dots (TQDs) are 3D topological insulator (TI) nanoparticles, displaying symmetry-protected surface states with discretized energies. We present a theoretical proposal to harness these energy levels in a closed lasing scheme operating in the terahertz (THz) frequency range. In thi...
