Surface states of topological insulators are expected to show peculiar electrical transport properties [1]. The remaining bulk conductivity, however, renders these elusive in transport measurements so far.

A combined investigation of single-crystalline Bi2Se3 was undertaken to obtain a comprehensive picture. The band structure of the bulk material was investigated via ARPES. Flakes from the bulk to the thin-film range (thicknesses from 270   nm to 70   nm) were then exfoliated. Their crystal structure was investigated by HRTEM and the chemical composition by EDX and X-PEEM. Hall measurements of the conductivity were undertaken to determine the charge carrier mobility and density. Our results confirm the high quality of the material. The temperature dependence of the conductivity and magnetoresistance down to 0.3  K are presented and discussed.
