Heterostructures of the design Bi2Se3/X/Co/Pt, with X = None, Pt, B4C or B4C/Pt as separation layer between the topological insulator (TI) and the ferromagnetic overlayer are studied. By means of magneto-optical Kerr effect, the magnetic behaviour is characterised, showing that perpendicular magnetic anisotropy can be achieved in the overlayer and minutely tuned by changing layer properties. In X-ray photoemission spectroscopy measurements, two Bi phases are identified in the heterostructures. By systematically varying the photon energy, the depth, in which the two Bi phases are located, is analysed. Significant differences of the chemical properties at the interface to the TI are found for heterostructures consisting of Bi2Se3 with a metallic or insulating overlayer, respectively. Finally, a scheme to invert the heterostructures is presented, potentially enabling angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on the TI’s surface in future in order to study the influence of the magnetisation state on the TI’s surface states.
