Magnetic dopants in three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) offer a promising avenue for realizing the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) without the necessity for an external magnetic field. Understanding the relationship between site occupancy of magnetic dopant elements and their effect on macroscopic property is crucial for controlling the QAHE. By combining atomic-scale energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) maps obtained by aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (AC-STEM) and novel data processing methodologies, including semi-automatic lattice averaging and frame registration, we have determined the substitutional sites of Mn atoms within the 1.2% Mn-doped Sb 2 Te 3 crystal. More importantly, the methodology developed in this study extends beyond Mn-doped Sb 2 Te 3 to other quantum materials, traditional semiconductors, and even electron irradiation sensitive materials.

Dy-free sintered magnets were fabricated by blending Neo powder with different grain boundary diffusion alloy powders. Cu, CeAl and CeAlCu have a negative effect on H cj of magnets, while PrAlCu and AlCuGa have a positive effect. The PrAlCu-added magnet achieves the best magnetic properties among all magnets with the additions of different diffusion alloys. With increasing PrAlCu from 0-10 wt.%, H cj of the magnets gradually increases from the original 14.5 kOe to 19.2 kOe. The magnet with 7.5 wt.% PrAlCu obtains a H cj of 18 kOe and (BH) max of 39.1 MGOe. It is found that Pr and Cu in PrAlCu alloy is mainly distributed at grain boundary and triple junctions, leading to a reduced coupling among grains, thus an enhanced H cj . Here, the grain boundary engineering by adding an appropriate alloy is an effective method to improve H cj of Dy-free NdFeB magnets.
