Anomalous Landau quantization in intrinsic magnetic topological insulators

The intrinsic magnetic topological insulator, Mn(Bi(1−x)Sb(x))(2)Te(4), has been identified as a Weyl semimetal with a single pair of Weyl nodes in its spin-aligned strong-field configuration. A direct consequence of the Weyl state is the layer dependent Chern number, [Formula: see text] . Previous reports in MnBi(2)Te(4) thin films have shown higher [Formula: see text] states either by increasing the film thickness or controlling the chemical potential. A clear picture of the higher Chern states is still lacking as data interpretation is further complicated by the emergence of surface-band Landau levels under magnetic fields. Here, we report a tunable layer-dependent [Formula: see text] = 1 state with Sb substitution by performing a detailed analysis of the quantization states in Mn(Bi(1−x)Sb(x))(2)Te(4) dual-gated devices—consistent with calculations of the bulk Weyl point separation in the doped thin films. The observed Hall quantization plateaus for our thicker Mn(Bi(1−x)Sb(x))(2)Te(4) films under strong magnetic fields can be interpreted by a theory of surface and bulk spin-polarised Landau level spectra in thin film magnetic topological insulators.
