Magnetic topological insulators (TIs) provide a highly tunable platform for engineering quantum states that emerge from the interplay between topology and magnetism. In this review article, we summarize experimental progress over the past…
Magnetic topological insulators provide a platform for emergent phenomena arising from the interplay between magnetism and band topology. Here we report the single crystal growth, crystal structure, magnetic and transport properties, as…
Topological insulators are bulk insulators with exotic surface states, protected under time-reversal symmetry, that hold promise in observing many exciting condensed-matter phenomena. In this report, we show that by having a topological…
Magnetic topological insulators (MTI) constitute a novel class of materials where the topologically protected band structure coexists with long-range ferromagnetic order, which can lead to the breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS),…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) display a rich variety of instabilities such as spin and charge orders, Ising superconductivity and topological properties. Their physical properties can be controlled by doping in electric…
Twisted bilayers of two-dimensional (2D) materials are proving a fertile ground for investigating strongly correlated electron phases. This is because the moir\'e pattern introduced by the relative twist between layers introduces…
The magnetic and electronic properties of the magnetically doped topological insulator Bi$_{\rm 2-x}$Mn$_{\rm x}$Te$_3$ were studied using electron spin resonance (ESR) and measurements of static magnetization and electrical transport. The…
Nontrivial band topology along with magnetism leads to different novel quantum phases. When time-reversal-symmetry is broken in three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) by applying high enough magnetic field or proximity effect,…
In integrating topological insulators (TIs) with conventional materials, one crucial issue is how the topological surface states (TSS) will behave in such heterostructures. We use first-principles approaches to establish accurate tunability…
The large spin orbit coupling in topological insulators results in helical spin-textured Dirac surface states that are attractive for topological spintronics. These states generate an efficient spin-orbit torque on proximal magnetic moments…
Three-dimensional topological insulators (3D-TIs) are a new generation of materials with insulating bulk and exotic metallic surface states that facilitate a wide variety of ground-breaking applications. However, utilization of the surface…
The energy-momentum relationship of electrons on the surface of an ideal "Hydrogen-Atom" Topological Insulator forms a cone - a Dirac cone, which, when warped and distorted (no longer described by the Dirac equation), can lead to unusual…
Using high-throughput automation of ab-initio impurity embedding simulations, we created a database of $3d$ and $4d$ transition metal defects embedded into the prototypical topological insulator (TI) Bi$_2$Te$_3$. We simulate both single…
A delicate tension complicates the relationship between the topological magnetoelectric effect (TME) in three-dimensional (3D) $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological insulators (TIs) and time-reversal symmetry (TRS). TRS underlies a particular…
An electron moving in a magnetically ordered background feels an effective magnetic field that can be both stronger and more rapidly varying than typical externally applied fields. One consequence is that insulating magnetic materials in…
The subbands of weakly coupled double-layer two dimensional electron gas systems consist of narrowly spaced pairs whose corresponding wavefunctions are symmetric and antisymmetric combinations of isolated layer subband wavefunctions. The…
Hybrid superconductor-semiconductor heterostructures are promising platforms for realizing topological superconductors and exploring Majorana bound states physics. Motivated by recent experimental progress, we theoretically study how…
We investigate the spatial and doping evolutions of the superconducting properties of tri-layer cuprate Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+x by using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy. Both the superconducting coherence peak and gap size exhibit…
Three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) are a perfectly tuned quantum-mechanical machinery in which counter-propagating and oppositely spin-polarized conduction channels balance each other on the surface of the material. This…
