Abstract
Temperature dependences of low field Hall resistivity ρH are used to
separate anomalous (ρHa) and normal (RHB)
contributions to Hall effect
in chiral magnet MnSi (
K). It is found that the transition
between paramagnetic (T>Tc) and magnetically ordered (T<Tc) phases
is accompanied by the change in anomalous Hall resistivity from low temperature
behavior governed by Berry phase effects
(ρHa=μ0S2ρ2M,
T<Tc) to high temperature regime dominated by skew scattering
(ρHa=μ0S1ρ M, T>Tc). The crossover between the
intrinsic (
) and extrinsic (
) contributions to
anomalous Hall effect develops together with the noticeable increase of the
charge carriers' concentration estimated from the normal Hall coefficient (from
n/nMn(
to n/nMn(
,
cm-3). The observed features may
correspond to the dramatic change in Fermi surface topology induced by the onset
of long range magnetic order in MnSi.
