Diminishing topological Faraday effect in thin layer samples

A striking feature of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators (TIs) is the theoretically expected topological magnetoelectric (TME) effect, which gives rise to additional terms in Maxwell's laws of electromagnetism with an universal quantized coefficient proportional to half-integer multi...
