Anomalous Hall Effect of the Co Thin Film Deposited by High-Pressure Magnetron Sputtering

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, we studied the dependence of temperature and weak localization (WL) effect on the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in strong disordered and poorly crystallized metal Co thin film deposited by high-pressure magnetron sputtering. The temperature coefficients of resistivity is positive at high temperatures and becomes negative at low temperatures, which is the typical characteristic of weak localization effect in dirty metal regime due to the strong disorder. The saturation anomalous Hall resistivity (ρAxy) have no scaling relation between ρxy and ρxx in weak localization region with temperature below 50 K. In metal region, temperature ranged from 50 K to 300 K, the relation between ρAxy and ρxx is ρAxy=A+bρ2xx, which indicates that the AHE in this Co thin film is scattering-independence at high temperature. The results also shows that the WL effect have a significant impact on the AHE of the Co thin film at low temperature.
