Proximity Effect induced transport Properties between MBE grown (Bi1−xSbx)2Se3 Topological Insulators and Magnetic Insulator CoFe2O4
Abstract In this study, we investigate the proximity effect in topological insulator (TI) and magnetic insulator bilayer system. (Bi1−xSbx)2Se3/CoFe2O4 (CFO) heterostructure was fabricated using molecular beam epitaxy and pulsed laser deposition system respectively. As revealed from the magnetoresis...
