Magnetic order in 3D topological insulators - wishful thinking or gateway to emergent quantum effects?

Three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) are a perfectly tuned quantum-mechanical machinery in which counter-propagating and oppositely spin-polarized conduction channels balance each other on the surface of the material. This topological surface state crosses the bandgap of the TI, and lives...
