Abstract Topological insulators and semimetals have exotic surface and bulk states with massless Dirac or Weyl fermions, demonstrating microscopic transport phenomenon based on relativistic theory. Chiral anomaly induced negative magnetoresistance (negative MR) under parallel magnetic field and current has been used as a probable evidence of Weyl fermions in recent years. Here we report a novel negative MR result with mutually perpendicular in-plane magnetic field and current in Cd3As2 nanowires. The negative MR has a considerable value of -16% around 1.5 K and could persist to room temperature of 300 K with value of -1%. The gate tuning and angle dependence of the negative MR demonstrate the mechanism of the observed negative MR is different from the chiral anomaly. Percolating current paths induced by charge puddles and disorder might be involved to produce such considerable negative MR. Our results indicate the negative MR effect in topological semimetals involves synergistic effects of many mechanisms besides chiral anomaly.

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.
