Abstract Due to non-saturating magnetoresistance (MR) and the special compensation mechanism, the Weyl semimetal TaAs single crystal has attracted considerable attention in condensed matter physics. Herein, we use maximum entropy mobility spectrum analysis (MEMSA) to extract charge carrier information by fitting the experimentally measured longitudinal and transverse electric transport curves of TaAs. The carrier types and the number of bands are obtained without any hypothesis. Study of the temperature dependence shows details of carrier property evolution. Our quantitative results explain the non-saturated magnetoresistance and Hall sign change phenomena of TaAs.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
