Quantum states of matter combining non-trivial topology and magnetism attract a lot attention nowadays; the special focus is on magnetic topological insulators (MTIs) featuring quantum anomalous Hall axion insulator phases. Feasibility many novel phenomena that \emph{intrinsic} TIs may host depends crucially our ability to engineer efficiently tune their electronic structures. Here, using angle- spin-resolved photoemission spectroscopy along with \emph{ab initio} calculations we report large...
Topological insulators (TIs) represent a novel quantum state of matter, characterized by edge or surface-states, showing up on the topological character bulk wave functions. Allowing electrons to move along their surface, but not through inside, they emerged as an intriguing material platform for exploration exotic physical phenomena, somehow resembling graphene Dirac-cone physics, well exciting applications in optoelectronics, spintronics, nanoscience, low-power electronics, and computing....

BiTeI has a layered and non-centrosymmetric structure where strong spin-orbit interaction leads to giant spin splitting in the bulk bands. Here we present high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) data UV soft x-ray regime that clearly disentangle surface from electronic structure. Spin-resolved UV-ARPES measurements on opposite, non-equivalent surfaces show identical structures, thus clarifying state character. Soft ARPES reveal spindle-torus shape of Fermi surface, induced by...

The behavior its intensity as function primary and scattering angle indicates that it is plasmon. At larger momenta (q_{∥}~0.04 Å^{-1}), an additional peak, attributed to Dirac plasmon, becomes clearly defined in spectrum....
