Low temperature magneto-transport properties of encapsulated WTe<sub>2</sub> flakes

POSTER

Abstract

We report low temperature electronic transport measurements of encapsulated semimetallic WTe2 flakes with different thickness. Magnetoresistance and Hall measurements reveal two-carrier behavior in all samples, which is consistent with band structure calculations. However, thicker sample shows a much larger charge imbalance between electron and hole concentrations than thinner one where the electron and hole are almost balanced down to 20 mK. Furthermore, angle dependence of Rxx reveals strong anisotropy in samples with different thickness.
