Title

Anti-ferromagnetic topological insulator candidate MnSb4Te7.

Abstract

This proposal relates to the rapidly-expanding field of topological materials, specifically the search for materials where the topological fermions can be controlled by the magnetic order. Very recently, the layered antiferromagnet (AFM) MnSb4Te7 was proposed as such a system, where the magnetic order can determine if the material is a topological insulator or a Weyl semimetal. We wish perform careful single crystal diffraction measurements of the magnetic structure of MnSb4Te7 as a function of temperature and field. The results will establish whether or not the topological fermions in MnSb4Te7 are coupled to the Mn spin configuration.
