AC magnetoresistance and its frequency-dependence of Fe-doped Bi2Se3 topological insulator

Abstract

Bismuth selenide (Bi2Se3) is one of the most important base materials in the study of topological insulators. Doping with iron is a direct method to manipulate the magnetic order in Bi2Se3. In this paper, we first report the measurements of magnetoresistance of Fe-doped Bi2Se3 with alternating current. Unlike the DC magnetoresistance, skin effect plays an important role in AC magnetoresistance. Another interesting finding is that resonance occurs at a certain frequency, which implies an internal relaxation mechanism. The relations between resistance, magnetic field and current frequency are discussed.
