[Abstract]:Topological insulators and topological crystal insulators are a kind of novel quantum states. Their common characteristics are that there is a spin-polarized surface state without energy gap between the electronic states of the insulated body, which is independent of the surface structure and determined by the topological properties of the body state. These novel physical properties make them have great application potential in the fields of spin electronics and topological quantum computing. The preparation of high quality topological insulators and topological crystal insulators is the key to the fabrication of electronic devices and the study of the nature of this quantum state. In this thesis, the growth kinetics and electronic structure of high quality topological crystal insulators (SnSe) were studied by using ultra-high vacuum molecular beam epitaxial (MBE), scanning tunneling microscope (STM) and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES). The topological phase transition and thermoelectric properties of topological insulators were studied in detail. The main results of this paper are summarized as follows: (1) High quality NaCl-type SnSe thin films were epitaxial on Bi_2Se_3 thin films by MBE, and the growth kinetics conditions of NaCl-type SnSe thin films were determined. Combined with the first principle calculation and ARPES results, we determine for the first time that the SnSe of NaCl-type is a new topological crystal insulator. (2) by using the growth mode of MBE, we have grown high quality (Bi1-xInx) 2Se3 (0 鈮，
