Any feedback will be highly appreciated", "categories": [ "cond-mat.mes-hall", "cond-mat.mtrl-sci" ], "abstract": "The intrinsic anomalous Hall effect is one of the most exciting manifestations of the geometric properties of the electronic wave-function. Here, we predict that the electronic wave-function's geometric nature also gives rise to a purely quantum mechanical, {\\it intrinsic} (scattering time-independent) component of the Hall conductivities in the presence of a magnetic field. We show that the orbital magnetic moment and the anomalous Hall velocity combine to generate a scattering time-independent contribution to the Hall effect, in addition to the Lorentz force induced scattering time-dependent `classical' Hall effect. This dissipation-less Hall effect also manifests in the thermo-electric and thermal conductivities and is dominant near the band edges and band-crossings. It gives rise to negative magneto-resistance and it also leads to an underestimation in the charge carrier density measured in Hall experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-12-16T06:05:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "orbital magnetic moment", "intrinsic hall conductivities", "electronic wave-functions geometric nature", "scattering time-independent", "lorentz force induced scattering time-dependent" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
