The pith
A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.
The reading
What carries the argument
The central object is the quantum capacitance $c_q$ of a surface Dirac cone, obtained from the RF admittance $Y(\omega)$ of a two-terminal capacitor through a one-dimensional distributed RC model, with the Fermi-energy axis set by the Berglund integral $\Delta\varepsilon_f = \int_0^{V_g} dV\,(1 - C(V)/c_g)$. The load-bearing identity is $c_q = e^2\Delta\varepsilon_f/(2\pi\hbar^2 v^2)$, whose slope gives the Dirac velocity, and the capacitance minimum is modeled as the series combination of the depleted-bulk geometric capacitance and the ungated surface's quantum capacitance, $c_{\text{min}} = (1/c_{g,\text{bulk}} + 1/c_q^{\text{ungated}})^{-1}$. These pieces convert a raw admittance sweep into a statement about the surface band structure.
What would settle it
Measure a CAP2-like device with a second gate that independently tunes the ungated top surface; if the extracted Dirac velocity changes as that surface's chemical potential is moved, the single-surface assumption behind the Berglund calibration is violated, whereas a constant velocity would confirm that the parasitic background is fixed.
Extended reading notes
Core claim
The central claim is that the RF admittance of a metal–insulator–topological-insulator capacitor measures the compressibility of the Dirac surface state, and that this measurement survives the presence of a trivial accumulation layer on the ungated surface. In both device geometries, the quantum capacitance $c_q$ displays a pronounced minimum when the gated surface is tuned to the Dirac point, even though the ungated surface remains metallic. Fitting $c_q = e^2\Delta\varepsilon_f/(2\pi\hbar^2 v^2)$ gives Dirac velocities $v = 5.2\times10^5$ m/s for the hBN-passivated top surface and $v = 4.9\times10^5$ m/s for the hBN–Bi2Se3 interface, consistent with earlier photoemission results. The residual capacitance at the minimum is attributed to capacitive coupling through the depleted bulk of Bi2Se3 to the ungated surface, whose chemical potential sits about 170 meV above its Dirac point in the passivated device, and is high enough in the air-exposed device that a parabolic two-dimensional electron gas must contribute.
Load-bearing premise
The load-bearing assumption is that the ungated surface acts as a constant parasitic capacitance during the gate sweep; if its chemical potential moves with the gate voltage through the bulk coupling the paper invokes to explain $c_{\text{min}}$, then the Berglund-derived Fermi-energy axis is miscalibrated and the fitted Dirac velocity is biased.
Editorial extensions
If this is right
- In both CAP1 and CAP2, a gate voltage can tune the gated surface through its Dirac point even when the opposite surface hosts a trivial accumulation layer, so RF compressibility is a viable local probe of a single topological surface.
- The hBN-passivated top surface and the hBN/Bi2Se3 interface yield the same Dirac velocity within uncertainty, so the interface does not strongly renormalize the surface Dirac cone.
- The residual capacitance minimum is explained by bulk-mediated coupling to the ungated surface; for the air-exposed top surface this requires a populated parabolic two-dimensional electron gas, indicating that passivation prevents the accumulation layer.
- Because a capacitance minimum and a linear $c_q(\Delta\varepsilon_f)$ curve are sufficient to extract the Dirac velocity, the same measurement can be applied to other topological or Dirac systems with parasitic bands as long as one surface can be gated through its Dirac point.
Reading between the lines
- If the bulk-coupling explanation is correct, the ungated-surface offset should scale with Bi2Se3 thickness: a thinner flake raises $c_{g,\text{bulk}}$ and should push $c_{\text{min}}$ upward, so measuring $c_{\text{min}}$ on flakes of 6, 8, and 12 quintuple layers would test the series-capacitance model directly.
- The same RF geometry could be applied to Fermi-arc surfaces of Weyl semimetals, where a gated surface hosts the arc while the ungated surface contributes a trivial Fermi surface; a quantitative separation would need the two-dimensional electron gas contribution modeled independently rather than lumped into the total ungated-surface quantum capacitance.
- One testable consequence of the identical measured velocities is that hBN encapsulation leaves the Dirac cone speed unchanged; an angle-resolved photoemission study on hBN-capped Bi2Se3 would confirm or contradict this directly.

Referee Report
Summary. The paper reports RF admittance measurements of metal-hBN-Bi2Se3 capacitors at 10 K up to 10 GHz for two device geometries: CAP1, a top-gated hBN-passivated device, and CAP2, a bottom-gated device with an air-exposed top surface. From a distributed RC model the authors extract channel resistance and total capacitance, derive a quantum capacitance c_q, convert gate voltage to Fermi energy via the Berglund integral, and fit the Dirac linear relation c_q = e^2 Δε_f / (2πℏ²v²) to obtain Dirac velocities of 5.2×10^5 m/s for CAP1 and 4.9×10^5 m/s for CAP2. The capacitance minimum is interpreted as capacitive coupling to the ungated surface through the depleted bulk, and for CAP2 the authors infer an electron accumulation layer on the exposed top surface. The central claim is that RF compressibility can probe the gated Dirac surface even when the opposite surface hosts a parasitic density of states.
Significance. If the analysis is correct, the paper provides a useful technical demonstration: RF quantum capacitance can extract Dirac velocities at both a passivated Bi2Se3 surface and a buried hBN/Bi2Se3 interface, with values consistent with prior ARPES work. The two-device comparison is a genuine strength, as is the use of an external ARPES benchmark to anchor the velocity fit and the explicit physical model for the residual capacitance minimum. The paper also makes a practical, falsifiable claim about hBN passivation preventing surface accumulation layers. However, the extraction chain is not self-consistent: the same capacitance minimum that the authors attribute to the ungated surface is left inside the total capacitance used for both the c_q inversion and the Berglund energy calibration. Because the correction is likely large, the reported velocities carry an unquantified systematic error even though the qualitative claim is plausible.
major comments (3)
- [After Eq. (3) and Fig. 3(c); the c_min analysis paragraph] The c_q extraction and the Berglund integral are applied to the total measured capacitance C(V), yet the paper's own analysis attributes c_min to a separate branch from the ungated surface, c_min = (1/c_gBulk + 1/c_q^ungated)^{-1}. If this branch is present, the inversion c = (1/c_g + 1/c_q)^{-1} is not the correct relation for the full circuit, and the Berglund integrand should contain the gated-surface series branch only. The correction is not small: from Table 1, c_min/c_g is roughly 10-15 for both devices, so C(V) can exceed c_g; taken literally, the formula for c_q would even become negative in the region where C exceeds c_g. Please specify the full equivalent circuit used for C(V), subtract or model the ungated-surface branch before extracting c_q and Δε_f, and report how v_D changes under a plausible range of this correction.
- [Fig. 4(a) and Table 1] The central comparison is that the Dirac velocities, 5.2×10^5 m/s (CAP1) and 4.9×10^5 m/s (CAP2), are the same 'within experimental uncertainty,' but no uncertainties are quoted for v_D, no fit range is given, and the number of fitted points is not stated. This makes the equality claim unverifiable. Please report fit uncertainties, the Δε_f window used, and whether the fits allowed an intercept; since Eq. (1) predicts a zero intercept while the data show a finite c_min, a fit constrained through the origin would bias v_D, whereas an unconstrained intercept would introduce a second parameter that must be stated.
- [Section on the capacitance minimum (CAP2)] The inference that the exposed top surface of CAP2 hosts a trivial electron accumulation layer is model-dependent: it assumes a 2DEG effective mass m = 0.14m0 and, as the manuscript notes, c_q^ungated = c_q2DEG + c_qTSS cannot be independently determined. The inequality c_min > 50 fF/μm² is not by itself a measurement of a 2DEG; other combinations of Dirac and massive states, or a different effective mass, could satisfy it. The conclusion should be presented as a plausible model consistent with earlier literature rather than as a unique determination.
minor comments (5)
- [Device fabrication, Fig. 1(d)] There are several typographical errors in the fabrication paragraphs, for example 'A seen in Fig. 1(d)' should be 'As seen', and 'in the addition to optimizing' should be 'in addition to optimizing'.
- [CAP2 c_min paragraph] The sentence containing 'through an insulating bulk with we can compute c_min using:' appears to be missing a word or value; please complete the sentence.
- [Eq. (3)] Equation (3) as typeset contains an awkward denominator; please verify that the printed expression matches the standard distributed RC admittance formula.
- [CAP1 provenance and Fig. 3] Since CAP1 was reported in Ref. [15], the manuscript should explicitly indicate which data are new in this work (mainly CAP2 and the comparison) and avoid the impression that both devices are first reported here.
- [Fig. 4(a)] No error bars are shown in Fig. 4(a); adding representative error bars would strengthen the claim that the finite c_min is not an experimental artifact.
Circularity Check
No significant circularity; velocity extraction is benchmarked against ARPES and the c_min model is an explicitly underdetermined post-hoc interpretation.
full rationale
The derivation of the Dirac velocity is not circular. The RF admittance is converted to C(V) via a distributed RC-model fit (Eqs. 2-3), the quantum capacitance is obtained from the series-capacitor relation c = (c_g^{-1} + c_q^{-1})^{-1}, and the Fermi-energy axis is set by the Berglund integral, Δε_f = ∫ dV (1 - C(V)/c_g). Neither transformation assumes the Dirac form Eq. (1); the linearity of c_q versus Δε_f and the slope v_D are then tested against Eq. (1) and compared with independent ARPES values [23,24]. That external benchmark means the fitted velocities are not equivalent to the input data by construction. The interpretation of the residual capacitance c_min invokes the authors' prior bulk-coupling model [15] and a 2DEG with a literature effective mass, but the paper explicitly concedes that the Dirac/2DEG decomposition of the ungated surface is underdetermined: 'it is not straightforward to determine each independently given the uncertainty on c_min.' This is a stated post-hoc model-selection limitation rather than a circular reduction. The single-surface assumption in the Berglund integral, namely that the ungated-surface contribution is a constant parasitic capacitance, is an unquantified systematic-error risk; that is a correctness concern, not a circularity. The self-citations to Refs. [14,15] concern processing, de-embedding, and the c_min model; they are not load-bearing for the central ambipolar finding, which is directly observed in both devices. Overall the paper is self-contained against external benchmarks and shows no significant circularity.

The topological state that emerges at the surface of a topological insulator (TI) and at the TI-substrate interface are studied in metal-hBN-Bi2Se3 capacitors. By measuring the RF admittance of the capacitors versus gate voltage, we extract the compressibility of the Dirac state located at a gated TI surface. We show that even in the presence of an ungated surface that hosts a trivial electron accumulation layer, the other gated surface always exhibits an ambipolar effect in the quantum capacitance. We succeed in determining the velocity of surface Dirac fermions in two devices, one with a passivated surface and the other with a free surface that hosts trivial states. Our results demonstrate the potential of RF quantum capacitance techniques to probe surface states of systems in the presence of a parasitic density-of-states.
