Disorder-induced quantum phase transitions in three-dimensional second-order topological insulators
Disorder effects on three-dimensional second-order topological insulators (3DSOTIs) are investigated numerically and analytically. The study is based on a tight-binding Hamiltonian for noninteracting electrons on a cubic lattice with a reflection symmetry that supports a 3DSOTI in the absence of dis...
