摘要
Magnetic proximity effects can lead to novel phenomena in the transport properties of topological insulators. In this study, we demonstrate a characteristic fourfold symmetry in the angular dependence of magnetoresistance in the topological insulator BiSbTeSe2 exfoliated onto magnetic insulator yttrium iron garnet substrates. The observed symmetry is seen to arise when the external magnetic field is in-plane to the current direction and gets enhanced at large field magnitudes. Increasing the temperature and current density diminishes the fourfold symmetry. The symmetry seems to be a signature of the proximity effect from the underlying magnetic substrate on BiSbTeSe2.
