摘要
Exciton edge states and the microwave edge exciton absorption of a 2D topological insulator subject to the in-plane magnetic field are studied. The magnetic field forms a narrow gap in electron edge states that allows the existence of edge exciton. The exciton binding energy is found to be much smaller than the energy of a 1D Coulomb state. Phototransitions exist on the exciton states with even numbers, while odd exciton states are dark.
