Theoretical and experimental study of second harmonic generation from the surface of the topological insulator Bi[subscript 2]Se[subscript 3]

We develop a theoretical model that describes the second harmonic generation of light from the surface of the topological insulator Bi[subscript 2]Se[subscript 3] and experimentally demonstrate that the technique is sensitive to the surface electrons. By performing a crystal symmetry analysis of Bi[...
