Crossover behavior in the magnetoresistance of thin flakes of the topological material ZrTe5
read the original abstract
ZrTe5 is a layered material that exhibits intricate topological effects. Intensive theoretically and experimental efforts have been devoted to try to understand the physics in this materials. In this paper the temperature dependent magneto-transport properties of ZrTe5 thin flakes are investigated. A characteristic temperature T* is observed in the temperature dependence of three different types of magnetoresistance simultaneously, which are the saturated Hall anomaly, the chiral anomaly and the longitudinal magnetoresistance. Furthermore, the value of T* decreases monotonically from 200K to 160K with increasing thickness of the ZrTe5 thin flakes from 42nm to 89nm. Temperature induced topological phase transitions are attributed to the cause of such anomaly in the three types of magnetoresistance at T*. Our findings provide a multi-parameter indicator for the emergence of topological phase transition in ZrTe5 and could be extended to the study of other topological materials. The temperature dependence of the three types of magnetoresistance also shed light on the role of anomalous Hall Effect in the transport properties of ZrTe5.
