The results reveal distinct anisotropies in both the longitudinal and planar Hall resistances as the magnetic field is rotated within the plane, which are well-captured by the planar Hall effect(PHE) model. Further analysis indicates that the primary contribution to the PHE in GaGeTe arises from its ferromagnetic component and anisotropic orbital resistance, rather than topologically nontrivial chiral anomaly. This work deepens our understanding of the PHE mechanism and offers valuable insights for the development of planar Hall sensors based on two-dimensional materials.展开更多

In this study, we systematically investigate the transport properties of IrSb_(3) single crystals. Magnetoresistance measurements exhibit prominent Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations and negative magnetoresistance at low temperatures. Quantum oscillation analysis extracts a nontrivial Berry phase and confirms a three-dimensional Fermi surface. Additionally, density functional theory calculations indicate the presence of nontrivial topological bands and surface states, suggesting that IrSb_(3) is a topological semimetal. These findings contribute to the growing family of topological materials and provide a platform for further exploration of quantum transport phenomena.展开更多

We find that the crystals show large linear magnetoresistance without any sign of saturation with a magnetic field up to 30T. We also observe a phase transition with significant anomalies in resistivity and heat capacity at T_(p)~140 K. Thermal expansion measurement reveals a subtle lattice parameter variation near Tp, i.e.,?L_(c)/L_(c)~0.062%. The structural characterization confines that there is no structure transition below and above T_(p). All these results suggest that the nonmagnetic transition of SrCu_(4-x)P_(2) could be associated with structural distortion.展开更多

The superconductivity can be effectively controlled by electronic doping, and the onset superconducting transition temperature Tc reaches as high as 45 K at a gate voltage Of Vg = 4 V. Meanwhile, the nematic phase is gradually suppressed with the increase of electronic doping （or Vg）. The results provide an effective method with variable charge doping for investigation of the rich physics in the FeSe superconductor.展开更多
