Magnetism Modified By Topology
What Has Been Achieved:
The experiment demonstrates the modification of the magnetic properties of a ferrimagnetic insulator, YIG, by juxtaposition with topological surface states in Bi2Se3 .
Importance of the Achievement:
This is the first example of how topological surface states in one material can influence the magnetic properties of another material.
