Structural and proximity-induced ferromagnetic properties of topological insulator-magnetic insulator heterostructures
The spontaneously broken time reversal symmetry can lead to the formation of an energy gap in the Dirac spectrum of the surface states of a topological insulator (TI) which can consequently give rise to a variety of interesting phenomena potentially useful for spintronics. In this work, we couple a...
