We theoretically investigate tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) devices, which are probing the spin-momentum coupled nature of surface states of the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$. Theoretical calculations are…
Though the Fermi surface of surface states of a 3D topological insulator (TI) has zero magnetization, an arbitrary segment of the full Fermi surface has a unique magnetic moment consistent with the type of spin-momentum locking in hand. We…
Topological insulators (TIs) are a class of materials characterized by an insulting bulk and high mobility topologically protected surface states, making them promising candidates for future optoelectronic and quantum devices. Although…
Bilinear magnetoresistance is a nonlinear transport phenomenon that scales linearly with the electric and magnetic fields, and appears in nonmagnetic systems with strong spin-orbit coupling, such as topological insulators (TIs). Using the…
Topological insulators (TIs) constitute a new class of materials with unique properties resulting from the relativistic-like character and topological protection of their surface states. Theory predicts these to exhibit a rich variety of…
We report a comprehensive study of magneto-transport properties in MoSi$_2$ bulk and thin films. Textured MoSi$_2$ thin films of around 70 nm were deposited on silicon substrates with different orientations. Giant magnetoresistance of 1000%…
MnBi$_2$Te$_4$ (MBT) is a promising antiferromagnetic topological insulator whose films provide access to novel and technologically important topological phases, including quantum anomalous Hall states and axion insulators. MBT device…
In this review, we present a summary of some recent experiments on topological insulators (TIs) and superconducting nanowires and films. Electron-electron interaction (EEI), weak anti-localization (WAL) and anisotropic magneto-resistance…
We consider a thin film of a topological insulator (TI) sandwiched between two ferromagnetic (FM) layers. The system is additionally under an external gate voltage. The surface electron states of TI are magnetized due to the magnetic…
Thin films of topological insulators (TI) usually exhibit multiple parallel conduction channels for the transport of electrical current. Beside the topologically protected surface states (TSS), parallel channels may exist, namely the…
The two-dimensional (2D) surface state of the three-dimensional strong topological insulator (STI) is fundamentally distinct from other 2D electron systems in that the Fermi arc encircles an odd number of Dirac points. The TI surface is in…
Topological insulators (TIs) are exotic materials which have topologically protected states on the surface due to the strong spin-orbit coupling. However, a lack of ordered growth of TI thin films on amorphous dielectrics and/or insulators…
The surface states of a 3D topological insulator (TI) exhibit topological protection against backscattering. However, the contribution of bulk electrons to the transport data is an impediment to the topological protection of surface. We…
We determine the optical response of topological insulator thin films in the presence of a quantizing, external magnetic field. We explicitly take into account hybridization between the states of top and bottom surface. The interplay…
Three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators (TIs) are known to carry 2D Dirac-like topological surface states in which spin-momentum locking prohibits backscattering. When thinned down to a few nanometers, the hybridization between the…
Magnetic proximity effect of a topological insulator in contact with a ferromagnet is reported in thin film bilayers of 15 nm thick $BiSbTe_3$ on either 15 or 40 nm thick $SrRuO_3$ on (100) $SrTiO_3$ wafers. Magneto transport results of the…
A combination of out-of-plane and in-plane magnetoconductance (MC) study in topological insulators (TI) is often used as an experimental technique to probe weak anti-localization (WAL) response of the topological surface states (TSSs).…
In chalcogenide topological insulator materials, two types of magneto-resistance (MR) effects are widely discussed: a positive MR dip around zero magnetic field associated with the weak antilocalization (WAL) effect and a linear MR effect…
Magneto-resistance (MR) of Bi$_2$Se$_3$ nanoribbons is studied over a broad range of temperature ($T$=300K-2K) and under various magnetic field ($B$) orientations. The MR is strongly anisotropic with the perpendicular MR much larger than…
We study coherent transport in density tunable micro-devices patterned from thin films of the topological insulator (TI) Bi2Se3. The devices exhibit pronounced electric field effect, including ambipolar modulation of the resistance with an…
