ABSTRACTWe report results of the study of the low-frequency noise in thin films of bismuth selenide topological insulators, which were mechanically exfoliated from bulk crystals via “graphene-like” procedures. From the resistance dependence on the film thickness, it was established that the surface conduction contributions to electron transport were dominant. It was found that the current fluctuations have the noise spectral density SI ∞ 1/f (where f is the frequency) for the frequency range up to 10 kHz. The obtained noise data are important for transport experiments with topological insulators and for any proposed device applications of these materials.

AbstractIndications that steep through-thickness strain gradients occur in vapour-deposited chromium films stemming from previous observations of film curling during spontaneous delamination from substrates, have been substantiated by analysis and simulation of Bragg X-Ray diffraction peaks. The presence of large through-thickness compressive strains, that increase quadratically with distance from the substrate from about zero at the interface to around 0.8% at the film surface, was deduced by empirical computer matching of diffraction peak shapes.
