Higher order exchange driven noncoplanar magnetic state and large anomalous Hall effects in electron doped kagome magnet Mn3Sn
NPJ QUANTUM MATERIALS(2024)
Abstract
Owing to geometrical frustration in the kagome lattice, Mn3Sn displays a 120 degrees in-plane triangular antiferromagnetic order, a manifestation of exchange interaction within the Heisenberg model. Here, we show the formation of a tunable noncoplanar magnetic ground state stabilized by higher-order exchange interactions in electron-doped Mn3Sn samples. Our density Functional Theory calculations reveal that the higher-order exchange induces a partial out-of-plane alignment of the Mn moments, resulting in a canted magnetic state, further experimentally confirmed by neutron diffraction study along with 60 T magnetic and Hall resistivity measurements. Interestingly, we find a large scalar spin chirality-induced Hall signal depending on the degree of non-coplanarity of the Mn moments. Additionally, we demonstrate simultaneous manipulation of two-component order-parameter in the system, where the two Hall signals can be independently manipulated. The present study explores the quantum phenomena associated with the coexistence of multiple magnetic orders and their prospective use in spintronic devices.
