Modulating the spin polarization of photoelectrons from a topological insulator — •Ji Hoon Ryoo and Cheol-Hwan Park — Department of Physics, Seoul National University 1 Gwanak-ro, Gwanak-gu, Seoul 08826, Korea

It has been predicted that the spin polarization of photoelectrons emitted from a topological insulator is highly tunable so that almost 100 % polarization along any arbitrary direction can be achieved by tuning the polarization of light [1]. There have been a number of experimental confirmations of this photo-induced spin modulation phenomenon [2-6]. Although this photo-induced spin modulation in topological insulators suggests a new kind of spin-polarized electron sources [2], there have been some experimental results that cannot be explained by previous theoretical descriptions [1]. In this presentation, we theoretically investigate photoemission process from topological insulators and interpret the recent experimental observations.
