Investigation of Interfacial Superconductivity in Epitaxial Bismuth telluride Thin Films Engineered with Textured Bismuth Nanoclusters

Bismuth Telluride Bi2Te3 serves as a compelling solid-state platform, functioning primarily as the topological insulator TI template for inducing superconductivity. Its most significant potential lies in the realization of Topological Superconductivity – a critical breakthrough for both quantum physics and information technology. Nevertheless, enhancing the critical temperature Tc and maintaining precise interfacial control remain the foremost research priorities in this area.
