High-Mobility Sm-Doped Bi2Se3 Ferromagnetic Topological Insulators and Robust Exchange Coupling — •Taishi Chen — Max Plank Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, 01187 Dresden, Germany

Magnetically doped topological insulators (MTIs) are emerging as a new platform of dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) as a result of growing interest in topological magnetoelectric effect, the quantum spin/anomalous Hall Effect, and Dirac fermion-mediated magnetic coupling physics [1]. However, the traditional transition metal magnetic elements doped topological insulators are often hindered by the inadequate material quality, which is demonstrated by the low mobility of the samples [2-4]. In this work [5], we show the successful preparation of a series of new Sm-doped Bi2Se3 MTIs, which exhibit ferromagnetism up to about 52 K and a suppressed bulk electron carrier concentration as low as 1018 cm*3 in order. Clear Shubnikov*de Haas oscillations are observed in these samples. All evidence suggests that Sm-doped Bi2Se3 is a candidate high-mobility MTI.
