Abstract

Single crystals of n-type Bi₂Se₃ grown by the Bridgman technique are found to make excellent Hall effect magnetometers capable of repeated cycling to liquid helium temperatures. Plots of Hall resistivity, ρ_yx, versus magnetic field B to 11 tesla deviate from linearity by less than ±0.8% for all temperatures between 1.1 and 300 K. Furthermore, the slope of the ρ_yx versus B curve varies by less than 2% in the region 1.1 to 78 K.
