We report the study of a triaxial vector magnetoresistance (MR) in nonmagnetic (BiIn)Se nanodevices at the composition of x = 0.08. We show a dumbbell-shaped in-plane negative MR up to room temperature as well as a large out-of-plane positive MR. MR at three directions is about in a -3%:-1%:225% ratio at 2 K. Through both the thickness and composition-dependent magnetotransport measurements, we show that the in-plane negative MR is due to the topological phase transition enhanced intersurface coupling near the topological critical point. Our devices suggest the great potential for room-temperature spintronic applications in, for example, vector magnetic sensors.
我们研究了非磁性(BiIn)Se 纳米器件在 x = 0.08 组成下的三轴矢量磁阻(MR)。我们在室温下展示了哑铃形的面内负 MR,以及大的面外正 MR。在 2 K 时,三个方向的 MR 约为-3%:-1%:225%。通过厚度和成分相关的磁输运测量,我们表明面内负 MR 是由于拓扑临界点附近的拓扑相转变增强了界面耦合。我们的器件为室温自旋电子学应用,例如矢量磁传感器,提供了巨大的潜力。
