Band-Filling Effect on Anomalous Hall Conductivity andThermoelectric Property in Weyl Semimetal Co<sub>3</sub>Sn<sub>2</sub>S<sub>2</sub>

ORAL

Abstract

The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) arises from both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms. Recent studies have shown that doping enhances the anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) in Co3Sn2S2, prompting an investigation into its band structure. In this work, we demonstrate that both Ni-substitution and Fe-substitution enhance the AHC, which we attribute to shifts in the Fermi energy (EF) and band-broadening effects, as confirmed by our angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements. Additionally, we report the temperature (T)-dependence of the Seebeck coefficient (S) and thermal conductivity (κ). The S (T) curve fitting provides additional support for dopant-induced modifications of the band structure and EF, and κ (T) exhibits decreased values in Fe-doped and Ni-doped samples. These findings enhance our understanding of band-filling effects on AHC, potentially advancing topological spintronics.
