“…The disorder induced bulk conduction in TI bulk (which is insulating in an ideal TI) opens up an additional conduction channel which is in parallel to the topological high conduction edge or surface state channel already present in TI’s. Recent bulk mutual inductance measurements in Bi 2 Se 3 27 , 28 shows a predominance of topological surface state conductivity at low T , however beyond 70 K the bulk contribution grows and competes with surface conductivity. The studies show that above 70 K the bulk conductivity is of a thermally activated nature 27 , 28 .…”

“…The crystal has dimensions of 1.9 mm × 0.9 mm × 0.02 mm. We have already investigated crystals from the same batch earlier using electrical transport [24] and two-coil mutual inductance techniques [27,28]. Mechanical exfoliation gave freshly cleaved flat surface of the Bi2Se3 crystal.…”
