Abstract

We report a proximity-driven large anomalous Hall effect in all-telluride heterostructures consisting of the ferromagnetic insulator Cr_{2}Ge_{2}Te_{6} and topological insulator (Bi,Sb)_{2}Te_{3}. Despite small magnetization in the (Bi,Sb)_{2}Te_{3} layer, the anomalous Hall conductivity reaches a large value of 0.2e^{2}/h in accord with a ferromagnetic response of the Cr_{2}Ge_{2}Te_{6}. The results show that the exchange coupling between the surface state of the topological insulator and the proximitized Cr_{2}Ge_{2}Te_{6} layer is effective and strong enough to open the sizable exchange gap in the surface state.
