Modification and control of topological insulator surface states using surface disorder

We numerically demonstrate a practical means of systematically controlling topological transport on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator, by introducing strong disorder in a layer of depth d extending inward from the surface of the topological insulator. The dependence on d of th...
