Magnetic skyrmions have garnered considerable attention due to their topological properties and potential applications in information storage. These unique structures can be found in chiral magnets, including well-known compounds like MnSi and FeGe with a B20-type crystal structure. In this study, we utilized Lorentz transmission electron microscopy to investigate the influence of magnetic skyrmions on the Hall effect in FeGe under low magnetic fields. Additionally, we examined the magnetoresistance (MR) and Hall effect of FeGe under a high magnetic field of 28 T. Our findings reveal distinct mechanisms governing the MR at low and high temperatures. Notably, the anomalous Hall effect plays a significant role in the Hall resistivity observed at low magnetic fields. Meanwhile, the contribution of the skyrmion-induced topological Hall signal in the FeGe is ignorable. Furthermore, by employing a two-carrier model and fitting the carrier concentration of FeGe under high magnetic fields, we demonstrate a transition in the dominant carrier type from electrons to holes as the temperature increases. These results contribute to a deeper understanding of the intrinsic magnetic properties of FeGe.
磁性斯格明子因其拓扑性质以及在信息存储方面的潜在应用而备受关注。这些独特的结构可在手性磁体中找到,包括具有B20型晶体结构的著名化合物,如MnSi和FeGe。在本研究中,我们利用洛伦兹透射电子显微镜研究了低磁场下磁性斯格明子对FeGe中霍尔效应的影响。此外,我们还研究了在28 T的高磁场下FeGe的磁电阻(MR)和霍尔效应。我们的研究结果揭示了低温和高温下MR的不同机制。值得注意的是,反常霍尔效应在低磁场下观察到的霍尔电阻率中起着重要作用。同时,FeGe中斯格明子诱导的拓扑霍尔信号的贡献可忽略不计。此外,通过采用双载流子模型并拟合高磁场下FeGe的载流子浓度,我们证明了随着温度升高,主导载流子类型从电子转变为空穴。这些结果有助于更深入地理解FeGe的本征磁性。
