ABSTRACT
The remarkable development of colloidal nanocrystals with controlled dimensions and surface chemistry has resulted in vast optoelectronic applications. But can they also form a platform for quantum materials, in which electronic coherence is key? Here, we use colloidal, two-dimensional Bi2Se3 crystals, with precise and uniform thickness and finite lateral dimensions in the 100 nm range, to study the evolution of a topological insulator from three to two dimensions. For a thickness of 4-6 quintuple layers, scanning tunneling spectroscopy shows an 8 nm wide, nonscattering state encircling the platelet. We discuss the nature of this edge state with a low-energy continuum model and ab initio GW-Tight Binding theory. Our results also provide an indication of the maximum density of such states on a device.
