Abstract

The breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS) in the normal state of kagome superconductors AV3Sb5 stands out as a significant feature, but its tunability is unexplored. Using low-energy muon spin rotation and local field numerical analysis, we study TRS breaking as a function of depth in single crystals of RbV3Sb5 (with charge order) and Cs(V0.86Ta0.14)3Sb5 (without charge order). In the bulk of RbV3Sb5 (>33 nm from the surface), we observed an increase in the internal magnetic field width in the charge-ordered state. Near the surface (
