Enhancement of carrier transport characteristic in the Sb2Se2Te topological insulators by N2 adsorption

Abstract The carrier transport characteristics of Sb2Se2Te topological insulators were investigated, after exposure to different levels of nitrogen gas. The magnetoresistance (MR) slope for the Sb2Se2Te crystal increased by approximately 100% at 10 K after 2-days of exposure. The Shubnikov-de Haas (...
