Abstract
- We employ the Dirac cone model to explore the high Chern number (C) phases that are realized in the magnetic-doped topological insulator (TI) multilayer structures by Zhao et al. [ Nature 588 419 (2020)]. The Chern number is calculated by capturing the evolution of the phase boundaries with the parameters, then the Chern number phase diagrams of the TI multilayer structures are obtained. The high- C behavior is attributed to the band inversion of the renormalized Dirac cones, along with which the spin polarization at the Î" point will get increased. Moreover, another two TI multilayer structures as well as the TI superlattice structures are studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
