AbstractThe Berry phase picture provides important insights into the electronic properties of condensed matter systems. The intrinsic anomalous Hall (AH) effect can be understood as the consequence of non-zero Berry curvature in momentum space. Here, we fabricate TI/magnetic TI heterostructures and find that the sign of the AH effect in the magnetic TI layer can be changed from being positive to negative with increasing the thickness of the top TI layer. Our first-principles calculations show that the built-in electric fields at the TI/magnetic TI interface influence the band structure of the magnetic TI layer, and thus lead to a reconstruction of the Berry curvature in the heterostructure samples. Based on the interface-induced AH effect with a negative sign in TI/V-doped TI bilayer structures, we create an artificial “topological Hall effect”-like feature in the Hall trace of the V-doped TI/TI/Cr-doped TI sandwich heterostructures. Our study provides a new route to create the Berry curvature change in magnetic topological materials that may lead to potential technological applications.

We used first-principles calculations to predict a class of new QSH phases for f-Ge(Sn)X2 films, which are useful for applications because of not only their sizable nontrivial bulk gaps, but also the tunability of the QSH states by chemical functionalization.

ABSTRACTExperimental and theoretical evidence is presented for oxygen DX centers in AlxGa1−xN. As the aluminum content increases, Hall effect measurements reveal an increase in the electron activation energy, consistent with the emergence of a deep DX level from the conduction band. Persistent photoconductivity is observed in Al0 39Ga0. 61N:O at temperatures below 150 K after exposure to light, with an optical threshold energy of 1.3 eV, in excellent agreement with first-principles calculations. Unlike oxygen, silicon does not exhibit DX-like behavior, in agreement with previous theoretical predictions.

Although layered metal dinitrides (MN2) have been proposed as the cousins of transition-metal dichalcogenides, the non-MoS2-type geometries are found to be more favourable in two-dimensional (2D) MN2 nanosheets. In this...

Decorating two-dimensional (2D) materials with transition-metal adatoms is an effective way to bring about new physical properties that are intriguing for applications in electronics and spintronics devices. Here, we systematically studied the coverage-dependent magnetic and electronic properties of graphene decorated by Co adatoms, based on first-principles calculations. We found that if the Co coverage is larger than 1/3[Formula: see text]ML, the Co atoms will aggregate to form a Co monolayer and then a van der Waals bilayer system between the Co monolayer and graphene forms. When the Co coverage is [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]ML, the Co adatom is spin-polarized with spin moment varying from 1.1 to 1.4[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]. The [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] orbitals of Co hybridize significantly with the [Formula: see text] bands of graphene, which generates a series of new bands in the energy range from [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]eV to 1[Formula: see text]eV with respect to the Dirac point of graphene. In most cases, the new bands near the Fermi level lead to topological states characterized by the quantum anomalous Hall effect.
