The paper presents an overview of the opportunities provided by the study of photoelectric effects in 3D topological insulators and a number of other topologically nontrivial materials being excited by terahertz radiation. It is shown that in a number of cases, information about electronic states obtained using such experiments is unique.

Keywords: terahertz radiation, photoelectric effects, photogalvanic effect, photoelectromagnetic effect, photoconductivity
