Unification of Nonlinear Anomalous Hall Effect and Nonreciprocal Magnetoresistance in Metals by the Quantum Geometry

Published 30 Nov 2022 in cond-mat.mes-hall, cond-mat.mtrl-sci, and cond-mat.other | (2211.17213v2)

Abstract: The quantum geometry has significant consequences in determining transport and optical properties in quantum materials. Here, we use a semiclassical formalism coupled with perturbative corrections unifying the nonlinear anomalous Hall effect (NLAHE) and nonreciprocal magnetoresistance (NMR, longitudinal resistance) from the quantum geometry. In the dc limit, both transverse and longitudinal nonlinear conductivities include a term due to the normalized quantum metric dipole. The quantum metric contribution is intrinsic and does not scale with the quasiparticle lifetime. We demonstrate the coexistence of a NLAHE and NMR in films of the doped antiferromagentic topological insulator MnBi$_2$Te$_4$. Our work indicates that both longitudinal and transverse nonlinear transport provide a sensitive probe of the quantum geometry in solids.
