Material is a key to the experimental observation of novel quantum phenomena predicted in topological insulators. In this chapter, we review the recent theoretic and experimental efforts devoted to improving the existing topological insulator materials and exploring new topological insulators. The emphasis is on growth and engineering of the properties of topological insulator thin films by molecular beam epitaxy for realization of various quantum effects.
