High-mobility two-dimensional carriers originating from pairs of Weyl nodes in magnetic Weyl semimetals are highly desired for their topological and spin electronics applications. The two-dimensional carriers in topological semimetals are realized due to surface Fermi arcs.
In this presentation, we report thickness- and angle-dependent magnetotransport properties, including quantum oscillations, of magnetic Weyl semimetal SrRuO3. The quantum oscillations for the 10-nm SrRuO3 film show tha the high-mobility two-dimensional carriers originate from surface Fermi arcs. When a magnetic field was applied parallel to the current, the negative magnetoresistance (MR) saturated in the quantum limit, confirming that the negative MR is induced by the chiral anomaly of Weyl nodes. These findings further highlight SrRuO3as an intriguing platform for topological oxide electronics and for exploring exotic quantum transport phenomena in magnetic Weyl semimetals.
