Record-high mobility and extreme magnetoresistance on kagome-lattice in compensated semimetal Ni3In2S2

The kagome-lattice crystal hosts various intriguing properties including the frustrated magnetism, charge order, topological state, superconductivity and correlated phenomena. To achieve high-performance kagome-lattice compounds for electronic and spintronic applications, careful tuning of the band structure would be desired. Here, the electronic structures of kagome-lattice crystal Ni3In2S2 were investigated by transport measurements, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy as well as ab initio calculations. The transport measurements reveal Ni3In2S2 as a compensated semimetal with record-high carrier mobility (∼8683 and 7356 cm2 V−1 S−1 for holes and electrons) and extreme magnetoresistance (15,518
