英文摘要 | We show that when a two-dimensional (2D) Dirac fermion moves in disordered environments, the weak time-reversal symmetry breaking by a small mass gives rise to the diffusive wave propagation, i.e., that the wave-packet spread obeys the diffusive law of Einstein, up to a-practically inaccessible-exponentially large length. Strikingly, the diffusion constant is larger than that given by the Boltzmann kinetic theory, and grows unboundedly as the energy-to-mass ratio increases. This diffusive phenomenon is of quantum nature and different from weak antilocalization. It implies a new type of transport in topological insulators at zero temperature. |
