Resonant magneto-optic Kerr effect in the magnetic topological insulator Cr:(Sb_x,Bi_1–x)₂Te₃

Journal Article Patankar, Shreyas ; Hinton, J. P. ; Griesmar, Joel ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We report measurements of the polar Kerr effect, proportional to the out-of-plane component of the magnetization, in thin films of the magnetically doped topological insulator (Cr0.12Bi0.26Sb0.62)2Te3. Measurements of the complex Kerr angle ΘK were performed as a function of photon energy in the range 0.8eV < ω < 3.0eV. We observed a peak in the real part of ΘK(ω) and zero crossing in the imaginary part that we attribute to a resonant interaction with a spin-orbit avoided crossing located ≈1.6 eV above the Fermi energy. The resonant enhancement allows measurement of the temperature and magnetic field dependence of ΘK inmore »« less

A method for eliminating Faraday rotation in cryostat windows in longitudinal magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements

Journal Article Polewko-Klim, A., E-mail: anetapol@uwb.edu.pl ; Uba, S. ; Uba, L. - Review of Scientific Instruments

A solution to the problem of disturbing effect of the background Faraday rotation in the cryostat windows on longitudinal magneto-optical Kerr effect (LMOKE) measured under vacuum conditions and/or at low temperatures is proposed. The method for eliminating the influence of Faraday rotation in cryostat windows is based on special arrangement of additional mirrors placed on sample holder. In this arrangement, the orientation of the cryostat window is perpendicular to the light beam direction and parallel to an external magnetic field generated by the H-frame electromagnet. The operation of the LMOKE magnetometer with the special sample holder based on polarization modulationmore »« less

Particle–hole asymmetry and quantum confinement effects on the magneto-optical response of topological insulator thin-films

Journal Article Asmar, Mahmoud M. ; Gupta, Gaurav ; Tse, Wang-Kong - Journal of Applied Physics

Intrinsically broken symmetries in the bulk of topological insulators (TIs) are manifested in their surface states. Despite particle–hole asymmetry in TIs, it has often been assumed that their surface states are characterized by a particle–hole symmetric Dirac energy dispersion. In this work, we demonstrate that the effect of particle–hole asymmetry is essential to correctly describe the energy spectrum and the magneto-optical response in TIs thin-films. In thin-films of TIs with a substantial degree of particle–hole symmetry breaking, such as Sb₂Te₃, the longitudinal optical conductivity displays absorption peaks arising from optical transitions between bulk and surface Landau levels for low photonmore »« less
