Spin-Electron (s-d) Interaction in TI Thin Films

Magnetism in Topological Insulators

Abstract

In this chapter, we propose the effective surface model, in which the interaction matrix depends on the position of localized spins relative to the slab surfaces. The s-d interaction constants are specific to a particular TI depending on whether it is a thick sample with a single massless Dirac cone or a thin slab with gapped massive fermions.
