Multi-carrier transport in ZrTe5 film Project supported by Guangdong Innovative and Entrepreneurial Research Team Program (Grant No. 2016ZT06D348) and Shenzhen Peacock Program (Grant No. KQTD2016022619565991). |
(color online) Temperature-dependent magneto-transport of the 28-nm ZrTe5 film. (a) and (b) The longitudinal and transverse magneto-resistance of ZrTe5 from 1.5 K to 200 K. Well-defined SdH oscillations are observed in the low field (< 4 T), and the Hall anomaly indicates two types of carriers. (c) The amplitude of the SdH oscillations at different temperatures after subtracting a high temperature background of 15 K, and the Zeeman splitting implies well-resolved Landau levels. (d) The Landau–Fan diagram of ZrTe5 films for different thickness values. The decrease in the slope indicates a reduction in the electron density. The zero intercepts demonstrate the nontrivial Berry phase. The insert represents the fit of the effective cyclotron mass (0.057 me) in the ac plane. (e) Two-carrier model fits of the Hall conductivity at 1.5 K, 60 K, and 200 K respectively. (f) The Kohler plot of MR at different temperatures, indicating hole dominating transport above 100 K and multi-carrier transport at low temperature. |
