Co atoms on Bi2Se3 revealing a coverage dependent spin reorientation transition

We investigate Co nanostructures on Bi _2 Se _3 by means of scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS), x-ray absorption spectroscopy, x-ray magnetic dichroism (XMCD) and calculations using the density functional theory (DFT). In the single adatom regime we find two different adsorptio...
