摘要/Abstract

摘要： The interplay between topology and magnetism is vital for realizing exotic quantum phenomena, significant examples including quantum anomalous Hall effect, axion insulators, and high-order topological states. These states host great potential for future applications in high-speed and low-consumption electronic devices. Despite being extensively investigated, practical platforms are still scarce. In this work, with molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), we provide the first experimental report on high-quality Bi(110)/CrTe$_{2}$ magnetic heterostructure. By employing in-situ high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy, we are able to examine the interaction between magnetism and topology. There is a potential edge state at an energy level above the Fermi level, but no edge states observed near the Fermi level The absence of high-order topological corner states near $E_{\rm F}$ highlights the importance of lattice matching and interface engineering in designing high-order topological states. Our study provides key insights into the interplay between two-dimensional magnetic and topological materials and offers an important dimension for engineering magnetic topological states.
