In this paper, we propose that the interplay of the Berry curvature, the orbital magnetic moment and the Lorentz force can induce a finite nonlinear resistivity in two dimensional systems in presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. The induced nonlinear magnetoresistivity scales linearly with the magnetic field and is purely quantum mechanical in origin. This novel transport signature can be used as an additional experimental probe for the geometric quantities in intrinsically time reversal symmetric systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-18T18:16:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "berry curvature induced nonlinear magnetoresistivity", "dimensional systems", "nonlinear magnetoresistivity scales", "intrinsically time reversal symmetric systems", "magnetic field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
