Abstract
Magneto-resistance measurements coupled with positron lifetime measurements, to characterize the vacancy-type defects, have been carried out on the topological insulator (TI) system Bi2Se3 of varying Se/Bi ratio. Pronounced Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations are seen in nominal Bi2Se3.1 crystals for measurements performed in magnetic fields up to 15 T in the 4 K–10 K temperature range, with field applied perpendicularly to the (001) plane of the crystal. The quantum oscillations, characteristic of 2D electronic structure, are seen only in the crystals that have a lower concentration of Se vacancies, as inferred from positron annihilation spectroscopy.
