Electron transport properties of a topological insulator Bi$_2$Se$_3$ thin film are studied in Hall-bar geometry. The film with a thickness of 10 nm is grown by van der Waals epitaxy on fluorophlogopite mica and Hall-bar devices are…
A new class of materials termed topological insulators have been intensively investigated due to their unique Dirac surface state carrying dissipationless edge spin currents. Recently, it has been theoretically proposed that the three…
We explore the phase coherence of thin films of the topological insulator material Bi2Se2Te grown through pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. The films were characterised using various techniques for phase and composition. The films…
We report the growth and magneto-transport studies of Pd$_{3}$Bi$_{2}$S$_{2}$ (PBS) thin films synthesized by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. The magneto-transport study on pristine and post annealed films show the presence of more…
Structural, magnetic and magnetotransport properties of (Bi$_{1-x}$Eu$_x$)$_2$Se$_3$ thin films have been studied experimentally as a function of Eu content. The films were synthesized by MBE. It is demonstrated that Eu distribution is not…
We evaluate quantum corrections to conductivity in an electrically gated thin film of a three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator (TI). We derive approximate analytical expressions for the low-field magnetoresistance as a function of…
Intermetallic binary compounds of europium reveal a variety of interesting phenomena due to the interconnection between two different magnetic and 4f electronic (valence) states, which are particularly close in energy. The valence states or…
The interplay between electronic interactions and strong spin-orbit coupling is expected to create a plethora of fascinating correlated topological states of quantum matter. Of particular interest are magnetic Weyl semimetals originally…
We report results of a magneto-transport study on thin films of the topological semi-metal candidate PdSb$_{2}$ (PS). We observe a positive correction to magneto-conductivity at low temperatures, which is a signature of weak…
While pyrochlore iridate thin films are theoretically predicted to possess a variety of emergent topological properties, experimental verification of these predictions can be obstructed by the challenge in thin film growth. Here we report…
Europium intermetallic compounds show a variety of different ground states and anomalous physical properties due to the interactions between the localized 4f electrons and the delocalized electronic states. Europium is also the most…
We investigate structural and transport properties of highly Ru-deficient SrRu0.7O3 thin films prepared by molecular beam epitaxy on (001) SrTiO3 substrates. To distinguish the influence of the two types of disorders in the films, Ru…
Rare earth compounds display diverse electronic, magnetic, and magneto-transport properties. Recently these compounds of the type RAlGe (R = La, Ce, Pr) have been shown to exhibit Weyl semimetallic behavior. In this work, we have…

Artificial confinement of electrons by tailoring the layer thickness has turned out to be a powerful tool to harness control over competing phases in nano-layers of complex oxides. We investigate the effect of dimensionality on transport…
We find that the long-range magnetic ordering is absent and electrical conduction suppressed in Y$_{1.7}$Bi$_{0.3}$Ir$_2$O$_7$/YSZ(100) thin film prepared by pulsed laser deposition. The sharp down-turn of inverse magnetic susceptibility…
