Surface dominated magnetotransport in Bi2Te2.15Se 0.85 topological insulator
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2018

Topological insulators (TIs) represent a new state of matter possessing an attractive surface spin texture with possible applications in quantum computation and spintronics. The growth of prototypical TIs such as Bi 2Te 3 and Bi 2Se 3 still remains a major challenge, because of vacancies and defects leading to an unintentional doping of the crystals creating a parallel conduction channel in the bulk. Here, we synthesized the Bi 2Te 2.15Se 0.85 (BTS) TI using a modified Bridgeman technique. Magnetotransport studies at different angles and temperatures of the device made on thin (BTS) flakes reveal the 2D nature of the weak antilocalization signal and surface dominated transport properties at low temperatures.
