Anomalous Hall effect and magnetic structure of the topological semimetal (Mn0.78Fe0.22)3Ge

Jian Rui Soh, Jan Persson

Me3+8Ge, being a Weyl semimetal, shows a large anomalous Hall effect (AHE), which decreases slowly with an increase in 8 from 0.1 to 0.4. However, AHE in this compound remains significantly large in the whole range of 8 because of the robust nature of the ...
