Linear magnetoresistance in the all-in-all-out antiferromagnet Cd2Os2O7

ORAL

Abstract

The pyrochlore Cd2Os2O7 undergoes a metal-insulator transition at 227 K, concomitant with a formation of all-in-all-out magnetic ordering. Here, we explore the magnetoresistance associated with this magnetic order, which manifests an odd-parity linear functional form. This form, recently reported in the related compounds Eu2Ir2O7, is allowed by the Onsager relationship for antiferromagnetic materials; however the microscopic origin is still unclear. By systematically studying a range of galvanomagnetic measurement configurations, we are able offer potential mechanisms for understanding this linear magnetoresistance involving transport both in the bulk and along the magnetic domain walls.
