Heavily Cr-doped (Bi,Sb)2Te3 as a ferromagnetic insulator with electrically tunable conductivity

With molecular beam epitaxy we have grown Cry(BixSb1-x)2-yTe3 thin films with homogeneous distribution of Cr dopants and Curie temperature up to 77 K. The films with Cr concentration y ≥ 0.39 are found to be topologically trivial, highly insulating ferromagnets, whose conductivity can be tuned over...
