摘要
Helical Dirac fermion states in topological insulators could enable dissipation-free spintronics and robust quantum information processors. A study of the influence of disorder on these states shows that although they are resilient against backscattering by magnetic impurities, fluctuations caused by charge impurities could cause problems for such applications.
