Additional Evidence for the Surface Origin of the Peculiar Angular-Dependent Magnetoresistance Oscillations Discovered in a Topological Insulator Bi_{1-x}Sb_{x}

We present detailed data on the unusual angular-dependent magnetoresistance oscillation phenomenon recently discovered in a topological insulator Bi_{0.91}Sb_{0.09}. Direct comparison of the data taken before and after etching the sample surface gives compelling evidence that this phenomenon is essentially originating from a surface state. The symmetry of the oscillations suggests that it probably comes from the (111) plane, and obviously a new mechanism, such as a coupling between the surface and the bulk states, is responsible for this intriguing phenomenon in topological insulators.
