Abstract
Topological insulators are quantum materials characterized by Time-reversal protected surface states (TSS) which make them appealing candidates for the design of next generation of highly efficient spintronic devices. The very recent demonstration of large transient spin-charge conversion (SCC) and subsequent powerful THz emission from Co|Bi1-xSbx bilayers clearly demonstrate such potentiality and feasibility for the near future. Amongst the exotic properties appearing in and at the surface of such quantum materials, spin-momentum locking (SML) remains as a key ingredient to effectively convert the spin degree of freedom into a charge or a voltage signal. In that sense, in this work we will provide some clear theoretical and numerical insights implemented by multiorbital and multi-layered tight-binding methods (TB) to clarify our recent experimental results obtained by THz-TDS spectroscopy.
