Non-monotonic variation of the Kramers point band gap with increasing magnetic doping in BiTeI

Abstract Polar Rashba-type semiconductor BiTeI doped with magnetic elements constitutes one of the most promising platforms for the future development of spintronics and quantum computing thanks to the combination of strong spin-orbit coupling and internal ferromagnetic ordering. The latter originat...
