A Corbino disk exhibits a magnetic dipole moment proportional to Hall conductivity when voltage is applied across a test material. This magnetic dipole moment can be measured through torque magnetometry. The symmetry of this contactless technique allows for the measurement of Hall conductivity in previously inaccessible materials. Finally, a low-temperature noise bound, the lack of systematic errors on dummy devices, and a measurement of the Hall conductivity of sputtered indium tin oxide demonstrate the efficacy of the technique.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-28T17:58:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hall conductivity", "cantilever torque magnetometry method", "highly resistive samples", "indium tin oxide demonstrate", "measurement" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
