Local photocurrent generation in thin films of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 — •Christoph Kastl1, Tong Guan2, Xiaoyue He2, Kehui Wu2, Yongqing Li2, and Alexander Holleitner11Walter Schottky Institut and Physik-Department, Technische Universität München, Am Coulombwall 4a, 85748 Garching, Germany — 2Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100190, China

We report on the optoelectronic properties of thin films of the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi2Se3 grown by molecular beam epitaxy. In spatially resolved scanning photocurrent experiments, we observe submicron photocurrent patterns with positive and negative amplitude [1]. The patterns are independent of the applied bias voltage, but they depend on the width of the circuits. We interpret the patterns to originate from a local photocurrent generation [2] due to potential fluctuations [3]. Furthermore, we verify and discuss the impact of the circular photogalvanic effect in optoelectronic Bi2Se3-based circuits [4].
