摘要
The nuclear spin relaxation time T-1 is calculated taking account of the contributions from orbital currents of Dirac electrons. We consider a simple model of non-interacting Dirac electron gas in the three-dimensional bulk system. The obtained result shows T-3 dependence of 1/T1 at temperatures T above the energy gap. This temperature dependence agrees qualitatively with the recent beta-NMR experiment on the bulk of the topological insulator Bi0.9Sb0.1.
