Planar Hall effect in the Dirac semimetal PdTe2
Abstrak
We report the synthesis and magneto-transport measurements on the single crystal of Dirac semimetal PdTe$_2$. The de Haas-van Alphen oscillations with multiple frequencies have been clearly observed, from which the small effective masses and nontrivial Berry phase are extracted, implying the possible existence of the Dirac fermions in PdTe$_2$. The planar Hall effect and anisotropic longitudinal resistivity originating from the chiral anomaly and nontrivial Berry phase are observed, providing strong evidence for the nontrivial properties in PdTe$_2$. With the increase of temperature up to 150 K, planar Hall effect still remains. The possible origin of mismatch between experimental results and theoretical predictions is also discussed.
