Weyl semimetals are characterized by the presence of massless band dispersion in momentum space. When a Weyl semimetal meets magnetism, large anomalous transport properties emerge as a consequence of its topological nature. Here, using in−situ spin- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy combined with ab initio calculations, we visualize the spin-polarized Weyl cone and flat-band surface states of ferromagnetic Co2MnGa films with full remanent magnetization. We demonstrate that the anomalous Hall and Nernst conductivities systematically grow when the magnetization-induced massive Weyl cone at a Lifshitz quantum critical point approaches the Fermi energy, until a high anomalous Nernst thermopower of ~6.2 μVK−1 is realized at room temperature. Given this topological quantum state and full remanent magnetization, Co2MnGa films are promising for realizing high efficiency heat flux and magnetic field sensing devices operable at room temperature and zero-field.

铁磁Heusler薄膜中的自旋极化Weyl锥和巨大的能斯特效应

魏尔半金属的特征是在动量空间中存在无质量的带弥散。当Weyl半金属遇到磁性时,由于其拓扑性质,会出现较大的异常传输性质。在这里,使用原位自旋和角度分辨光电子能谱与从头算计算,我们可以看到具有完全剩磁的铁磁Co 2 MnGa薄膜的自旋极化Weyl锥和平带表面状态。我们证明当Lifshitz量子临界点处的磁化感应大Weyl锥接近费米能量时,异常霍尔和能斯特电导率会系统地增长,直到〜6.2μVK -1的高异常能斯特热能在室温下实现。考虑到这种拓扑量子态和完全剩余的磁化强度,Co 2 MnGa膜有望实现在室温和零场下工作的高效热通量和磁场感应装置。
