Long-Range Coulomb Interaction Effects on the Surface Dirac Electron System of a Three-Dimensional Topological Insulator

Long-Range Coulomb Interaction Effects on the Surface Dirac Electron System of a Three-Dimensional Topological Insulator

The surface state of a three-dimensional topological insulator forms a two-dimensional massless Dirac electron system. In Dirac electron systems, Coulomb interaction is not screened due to the small density of states at the Fermi energy and thus the long-range Coulomb interaction (LRCI) plays a crucial role. In this paper, we …
