Structural, resistivity, thermoelectric power and magneto-transport properties of Cu doped Bi2Te3 topological insulators have been investigated. The occurrence of the tuning of charge carriers from n type to p type by Cu doping at Te sites of Bi2Te3 is observed both from Hall effect and thermoelectric power measurements. Carrier mobility decreases with the doping of Cu which provides evidence of the movement of Fermi level from bulk conduction band to the bulk valence band. Thermoelectric power also increaseswith doping of Cu.Moreover linear magnetoresistance (LMR) has been observed at high magnetic field in pure Bi2Te3 which is associated to the gapless topological surface states protected by time reversal symmetry (TRS), whereas doping of Cu breaks TRS and an opening of band gap occurs which quenches the LMR.

We report on the observation of the two-dimensional weak antilocalization in (Cu0.1Bi0.9)2Te3.06 crystals relying on measurements of the magnetoresistance in a tilted field. The dephasing analysis and scanning tunneling spectroscopy corroborate the t
ransport of the topological surface states (SS). The SSs contribute 3.3% conductance in 30{mu}m-thick material and become dominant in the 100nm-thick flakes. Such optimized topological SS transport is achieved by an intense aging process, when the bulk conductance is suppressed by four orders of magnitude in the long period. Scanning tunneling microscopy reveals that Cu atoms are initially inside the quintuple layers and migrate to the layer gaps to form Cu clusters during the aging. In combination with first-principles calculations, an atomic tunneling-clustering procedure across a diffusion barrier of 0.57eV is proposed.
Magnetic interaction with the gapless surface states in topological insulator (TI) has been predicted to give rise to a few exotic quantum phenomena. However, the effective magnetic doping of TI is still challenging in experiment. Using first-princip
les calculations, the magnetic doping properties (V, Cr, Mn and Fe) in three strong TIs (Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$, Bi$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ and Sb$_{2}$Te$_{3}$) are investigated. We find that for all three TIs the cation-site substitutional doping is most energetically favorable with anion-rich environment as the optimal growth condition. Further our results show that under the nominal doping concentration of 4%, Cr and Fe doped Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$, Bi$_{2}$Te$_{3}$, and Cr doped Sb$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ remain as insulator, while all TIs doped with V, Mn and Fe doped Sb$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ become metal. We also show that the magnetic interaction of Cr doped Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ tends to be ferromagnetic, while Fe doped Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ is likely to be antiferromagnetic. Finally, we estimate the magnetic coupling and the Curie temperature for the promising ferromagnetic insulator (Cr doped Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$) by Monte Carlo simulation. These findings may provide important guidance for the magnetism incorporation in TIs experimentally.
The observation of quantized anomalous Hall conductance in the forced ferromagnetic state of MnBi2Te4 thin flakes has attracted much attentions. However, strong magnetic field is needed to fully polarize the magnetic moments due to the large antiferr
omagnetic interlayer exchange coupling. Here, we reported the magnetic and electrical transport properties of the magnetic van der Waals MnBi2Te4(Bi2Te3)n (n=1,2) single crystals, in which the interlayer antiferromagnetic exchange coupling is greatly suppressed with the increase of the separation layers Bi2Te3. MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10 show weak antiferromagnetic transition at 12.3 and 10.5 K, respectively. The ferromagnetic hysteresis was observed at low temperature for both of the crystals, which is quite crucial for realizing the quantum anomalous Hall effect without external magnetic field. Our work indicates that MnBi2Te4(Bi2Te3)n (n=1,2) provide ideal platforms to investigate the rich topological phases with going to their 2D limits.
We discuss the ultrafast evolution of the surface electronic structure of the topological insulator Bi$_2$Te$_3$ following a femtosecond laser excitation. Using time and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, we provide a direct real-time visuali
sation of the transient carrier population of both the surface states and the bulk conduction band. We find that the thermalization of the surface states is initially determined by interband scattering from the bulk conduction band, lasting for about 0.5 ps; subsequently, few ps are necessary for the Dirac cone non-equilibrium electrons to recover a Fermi-Dirac distribution, while their relaxation extends over more than 10 ps. The surface sensitivity of our measurements makes it possible to estimate the range of the bulk-surface interband scattering channel, indicating that the process is effective over a distance of 5 nm or less. This establishes a correlation between the nanoscale thickness of the bulk charge reservoir and the evolution of the ultrafast carrier dynamics in the surface Dirac cone.
The magnetic structures of MnBi2Te4(Bi2Te3)n can be manipulated by tuning the interlayer coupling via the number of Bi2Te3 spacer layers n, while the intralayer ferromagnetic (FM) exchange coupling is considered too robust to control. By applying hyd
rostatic pressure up to 3.5 GPa, we discover opposite responses of magnetic properties for n = 1 and 2. MnBi4Te7 stays at A-type antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase with a decreasing Neel temperature and an increasing saturation field. In sharp contrast, MnBi6Te10 experiences a phase transition from A-type AFM to a quasi-two-dimensional FM state with a suppressed saturation field under pressure. First-principles calculations reveal the essential role of intralayer exchange coupling from lattice compression in determining these magnetic properties. Such magnetic phase transition is also observed in 20% Sb-doped MnBi6Te10 due to the in-plane lattice compression.
