Two-dimensional topological Anderson insulator in a HgTe-based semimetal

We report the experimental observation of Anderson localization in two-dimensional (2D) electrons and holes in the bulk of HgTe quantum wells with a semimetallic spectrum and under strong disorder. Surprisingly, the one-dimensional (1D) edge channels, arising from the spectrum's inversion, demo...
