The experimental observation of quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) in magnetic topological insulators has stimulated enormous interest in condensed-matter physics and materials science. For the purpose of realizing high-temperature QAHE, several material candidates have been proposed, among which the interface states in the CdO/ferromagnetic insulator heterostructures are particularly interesting and favorable for technological applications. Here, we report the experimental observation of the interfacial ferromagnetism and anomalous Hall effect in the Fe3O4/CdO/Fe3O4 heterostructures grown via oxide molecular-beam epitaxy. Systematical variation of the CdO thickness reveals the interface ferromagnetism as the major cause for the observed planar magnetoresistance and anomalous Hall effect. Our results might pave the way to engineer oxide interface states for the exploration of QAHE towards exotic quantum-physical phenomena and potential applications.

Breaking the time-reversal symmetry of a topological insulator (TI) by ferromagnetism can induce exotic magnetoelectric phenomena such as quantized anomalous Hall (QAH) effect. Experimental observation of QAH effect in a magnetically doped TI require
s ferromagnetism not relying on the charge carriers. We have realized the ferromagnetism independent of both polarity and density of carriers in Cr-doped BixSb2-xTe3 thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Meanwhile, the anomalous Hall effect is found significantly enhanced with decreasing carrier density, with the anomalous Hall angle reaching unusually large value 0.2 and the zero field Hall resistance reaching one quarter of the quantum resistance (h/e2), indicating the approaching of the QAH regime. The work paves the way to ultimately realize QAH effect and other unique magnetoelectric phenomena in TIs.
The Berry phase picture provides important insights into the electronic properties of condensed matter systems. The intrinsic anomalous Hall (AH) effect can be understood as a consequence of non-zero Berry curvature in momentum space. The realization
of the quantum anomalous Hall effect provided conclusive evidence for the intrinsic mechanism of the AH effect in magnetic topological insulators (TIs). Here we fabricated magnetic TI/TI heterostructures and found both the magnitude and sign of the AH effect in the magnetic TI layer can be altered by tuning the TI thickness and/or the electric gate voltage. The sign change of the AH effect with increasing TI thickness is attributed to the charge transfer across the TI and magnetic TI layers, consistent with first-principles calculations. By fabricating the magnetic TI/TI/magnetic TI sandwich heterostructures with different dopants, we created an artificial topological Hall (TH) effect-like feature in Hall traces. This artificial TH effect is induced by the superposition of two AH effects with opposite signs instead of the formation of chiral spin textures in the samples. Our study provides a new route to engineer the Berry curvature in magnetic topological materials that may lead to potential technological applications.
The Dirac electrons occupying the surface states (SSs) of topological insulators (TIs) have been predicted to exhibit many exciting magneto-transport phenomena. Here we report on the first experimental observation of an unconventional planar Hall eff
ect (PHE) and an electrically gate-tunable hysteretic planar magnetoresistance (PMR) in EuS/TI heterostructures, in which EuS is a ferromagnetic insulator (FMI) with an in-plane magnetization. In such exchange-coupled FMI/TI heterostructures, we find a significant (suppressed) PHE when the in-plane magnetic field is parallel (perpendicular) to the electric current. This behavior differs from previous observations of the PHE in ferromagnets and semiconductors. Furthermore, as the thickness of the 3D TI films is reduced into the 2D limit, in which the Dirac SSs develop a hybridization gap, we find a suppression of the PHE around the charge neutral point indicating the vital role of Dirac SSs in this phenomenon. To explain our findings, we outline a symmetry argument that excludes linear-Hall mechanisms and suggest two possible non-linear Hall mechanisms that can account for all the essential qualitative features in our observations.
We have studied the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) in [Fe3O4/Pt]-based heterostructures, by measuring the ANE-induced electric field with a magnetic field applied normal to the sample surface, in the perpendicular magnetized configuration, where only
the ANE is expected. An ANE voltage is observed for [Fe3O4/Pt]n multilayers, and we further investigated its origin by performing measurements in [Fe3O4/Pt/Fe3O4] trilayers as a function of the Pt thickness. Our results suggest the presence of an interface-induced ANE. Despite of this ANE, the spin Seebeck effect is the dominant mechanism for the transverse thermoelectric voltage in the in-plane magnetized configuration, accounting for about 70 % of the measured voltage in the multilayers.
We report the formation of a novel ferromagnetic state in the antiferromagnet BiFeO3 at the interface with La0.7Sr0.3MnO3. Using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at Mn and Fe L2,3-edges, we discovered that the development of this ferromagnetic spin
structure is strongly associated with the onset of a significant exchange bias. Our results demonstrate that the magnetic state is directly related with an electronic orbital reconstruction at the interface, which is supported by the linearly polarized x-ray absorption measurement at oxygen K-edge.
