Magnetic interaction with the gapless surface states in topological insulator (TI) has been predicted to give rise to a few exotic quantum phenomena. However, the effective magnetic doping of TI is still challenging in experiment. Using…
Magnetism breaks the time reversal symmetry expected to open a Dirac gap in 3D topological insulators that consequently leads to quantum anomalous Hall effect. The most common approach of inducing ferromagnetic state is by doping magnetic…
Several proposed applications and exotic effects in topological insulators rely on the presence of helical Dirac states at the interface between a topological and a normal insulator. In the present work, we have used low-energy…

Binary bismuth chalcogenides Bi$_2$Se$_3$, Bi$_2$Te$_3$, and related materials are currently being extensively investigated as the reference topological insulators (TIs) due to their simple surface-state band dispersion (single Dirac cone)…
By intercalation of alkaline-earth metal Sr in Bi2Se3, superconductivity with large shielding volume fraction (~91.5% at 0.5 K) has been achieved in Sr0.065Bi2Se3. The analysis of the Shubnikov-de Hass oscillations confirms the 1/2-shift…
Topological insulators are novel quantum materials with metallic surface transport, but insulating bulk behavior. Often, topological insulators are dominated by bulk contributions due to defect induced bulk carriers, making it difficult to…
