Its two-dimensional character is demonstrated by the field-tilting magnetoresistance measurements. Its origin from the surface electrons is determined by the fact that the UCF amplitudes keep unchanged while applying an in-plane field to suppress the coherence of bulk electrons. After considering the ensemble average in a batch of micrometer-sized samples, the intrinsic UCF magnitudes of over 0.37 e2/h is obtained. This agrees with the theoretical prediction on topological surface states. All the evidence point to the successful observation of the UCF of topological surface states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-06-02T02:17:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "universal conductance fluctuations", "bi2te2se microflakes", "topological transport", "topological surface states", "indications" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.7567/APEX.7.065202", "journal": "Applied Physics Express", "year": 2014, "month": "Jun", "volume": 7, "number": 6, "pages": "065202" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014APExp...7f5202L" } } }
