Ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic coexisting ground state and exchange bias effects in MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10

MnBi2Te4 and Bi2Te3 can form natural superlattices, where the MnBi2Te4 layers are separated by multiples of Bi2Te3. The combination of these two materials offers a potential platform for the interplay of tunable magnetism and topology. Here, the authors show that MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10 display a com...

description MnBi2Te4 and Bi2Te3 can form natural superlattices, where the MnBi2Te4 layers are separated by multiples of Bi2Te3. The combination of these two materials offers a potential platform for the interplay of tunable magnetism and topology. Here, the authors show that MnBi4Te7 and MnBi6Te10 display a complex magnetic ground state with coexisting ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic domains.
