Large magnetoresistance over an extended temperature regime in monophosphides of tantalum and niobium
Open accessAbstract
We report extremely large magnetoresistance (MR) in an extended temperature regime from 1.5 K to 300 K in non-magnetic binary compounds TaP and NbP. TaP exhibits linear MR around $1.8\times 10^4$ at 2 K in a magnetic field of 9 Tesla, which further follows its linearity up to $1.4\times 10^5$ in a magnetic field of 56 Tesla at 1.5 K. At room temperature the MR for TaP and NbP follows a power law of the exponent about $1.5$ with the values larger than $300\%$ in a magnetic field of 9 Tesla. Such large MR in a wide temperature regime is not likely only due to a resonance of the electron-hole balance, but indicates a complicated mechanism underneath.

Multiple oscillation frequencies are often observed in most topological semimetals, such as the TaAs family and WHM materials with PbFCl-type structure.
“However, multiple oscillation frequencies are often observed in most topological semimetals, such as those of the TaAs family (179, 180, 182, 183, 191-193, 227, 243) and WHM materials with PbFCl-type structure (W = Zr or Hf; H = Si, Ge, or Sn; M = S, Se, or Te) (156,221,222,226,228,232,233,241,242,244,245).”
From Transport of Topological Semimetals (2019) · cites this paper as [179]
The paper reports Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations in TaP and NbP (p. 4) and FFT-derived frequencies for those TaAs-family materials (p. 6). But the Fig. 4 caption (p. 11) assigns F1 and F2 to different samples; the copy does not establish that multiple frequencies occur in each material or that this is common across most topological semimetals. The WHM example has a separate citation group and is not attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.79)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSince the experimental discoveries of the WSM state in materials such as TaAs class (type I) and (W/Mo)Te2 (type II), many research groups have reported observation of negative longitudinal MR in those materials and have attributed it to the chiral magnetic effect.
“Since the experimental discoveries of the WSM state in materials such as TaAs class (type I) materials (22,23,25,27,39,(86)(87)(88)(89)(90)(91)(92) and (W/Mo)Te 2 (type II) materials (28,(111)(112)(113)(114)(115)(116)(117)(118)(119)(120)(121)(122), many research groups have reported observation of negative longitudinal MR in those materials and have attributed it to the chiral magnetic effect (109”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredQuadratic or nearly-quadratic field dependence of ρxx has been observed in a number of topological semimetals, but linear or sublinear MR has also been observed in a variety of samples.
“Such a dependence has indeed been observed in a number of topological semimetals (48,183,(191)(192)(193), but linear or even sublinear MR has also been observed in a variety of samples (107, 171, 172, 174-180, 182, 183, 191, 194).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
