Once an IR mode has been d i en wi h a sufficien ly s ong

accompanies such a ligh -induced magne ic ansi ion.
The opology in MBT is ich. In bulk MBT, he magne ic

In he hin-film limi , he opology
depends in he numbe o SLs.

wi h C= 0 in he AFM phase and |C|= 1 in he FM phase.
Odd laye (3-, 5-, and 7-SL) MBT is p edic ed o be in a |C|=

and a ze o Hall pla eau,

We s udy he opology o 2-SL MBT as a unc ion o he
