When a three-dimensional (3D) ferromagnetic topological insulator thin film is magnetized out-of-plane, conduction ideally occurs through dissipationless, one-dimensional (1D) chiral states that are characterized by a quantized, zero-field Hall conductance. The recent realization of this phenomenon - the quantum anomalous Hall effect - provides a conceptually new platform for studies of edge-state transport, distinct from the more extensively studied integer and fractional quantum Hall effects that arise from Landau level formation. An important question arises in this context: how do these 1D edge states evolve as the magnetization is changed from out-of-plane to in-plane? We examine this question by studying the field-tilt driven crossover from predominantly edge state transport to diffusive transport in Cr-doped (Bi,Sb)2Te3 thin films, as the system transitions from a quantum anomalous Hall insulator to a gapless, ferromagnetic topological insulator. The crossover manifests itself in a giant, electrically tunable anisotropic magnetoresistance that we explain using the Landauer-Buttiker formalism. Our methodology provides a powerful means of quantifying edge state contributions to transport in temperature and chemical potential regimes far from perfect quantization.
Anisotropic magnetoresistance is the change tendency of resistance of a material on the mutual orientation of the electric current and the external magnetic field. Here, we report experimental observations in the Dirac semimetal Cd3As2 of giant aniso
Recent work has extended topological band theory to open, non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, yet little is understood about how non-Hermiticity alters the topological quantization of associated observables. We address this problem by studying the quantum an
The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) state is a two-dimensional bulk insulator with a non-zero Chern number in absence of external magnetic fields. Protected gapless chiral edge states enable dissipationless current transport in electronic devices. Dopin
Combining magnetism and nontrivial band topology gives rise to quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) insulators and exotic quantum phases such as the QAH effect where current flows without dissipation along quantized edge states. Inducing magnetic order in to
We observe an unusual behavior of the spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) measured in a Pt ultra-thin film deposited on a ferromagnetic insulator, which is a tensile-strained LaCoO3 (LCO) thin film with the Curie temperature Tc=85K. The SMR displays a
