摘要: MnBi2Te4是首次被发现的一种本征磁性拓扑绝缘体,具有重要的研究意义。本文通过在MnBi2Te4晶体中进行稀土元素掺杂,合成了Er掺杂MnBi2Te4晶体,Er原子进入晶格并取代Mn位。在晶体制备过程中,考虑到目前晶体制备工艺周期较长,生成物存在Bi2Te3助熔剂等杂质的问题,对晶体制备工艺进行了优化探索。XRD测试结果表明,利用改进工艺制备的Er掺杂MnBi2Te4晶体结晶性能良好,不含杂质相。磁电输运测量结果显示,少量Er掺杂MnBi2Te4晶体的磁性增强,掺杂样品在25.2 K发生反铁磁相变。使用原子力显微镜对Er掺杂MnBi2Te4晶体层间距进行了研究,发现层间距为单层MnBi2Te4的整数倍。通过拉曼测试研究了Er掺杂MnBi2Te4晶体声子振动模式,结果表明,Er掺杂是调节MnBi2Te4磁性的一种可行方法。

Abstract: MnBi2Te4 is an intrinsic magnetic topological insulator discovered for the first time, which has important research significance. In this paper, Er-doped MnBi2Te4 crystal were synthesized by doping rare earth elements in MnBi2Te4 crystal. The Er atom enters the lattice and replaces the Mn site. Considering the long period of crystal preparation process and the existence of impurities such as Bi2Te3 flux in the product during crystal preparation, the crystal preparation process was optimized. XRD analysis shows that the Er-doped MnBi2Te4 crystal prepared by the optimized process has good crystallinity and no impurity phase. The magnetoelectric transport measurement results show that a small amount of Er-doped MnBi2Te4 crystal has enhanced magnetic properties, and the doped samples undergo antiferromagnetic phase transition at 25.2 K. The layer spacing of Er-doped MnBi2Te4 crystal was studied by atomic force microscopy. The layer spacing is an integral multiple of that of single-layer MnBi2Te4. The phonon vibration mode of Er-doped MnBi2Te4 crystal was studied by Raman measurement, and the results show that doping Er is a feasible method to adjust the magnetic properties of MnBi2Te4.

Key words: MnBi2Te4, antiferromagnetic topological insulator, Er doping, crystallinity, magnetic property, phonon vibration mode
