It is well established that the anomalous Hall effect that a ferromagnet displays scales with its magnetization. Therefore, an antiferromagnet that has no net magnetization should exhibit no anomalous Hall effect. Here we show that the non-collinear triangular antiferromagnet Mn3Ge exhibits a large anomalous Hall effect comparable to that of ferromagnetic metals; the magnitude of the anomalous conductivity is 500 per ohm per cm at 2 K and 50 per ohm per cm at room temperature. The angular dependence of the anomalous Hall effect measurements confirm that the small residual in-plane magnetic moment has no role in the observed effect. Our theoretical calculations demonstrate that the large anomalous Hall effect in Mn3Ge originates from a non-vanishing Berry curvature that arises from the chiral spin structure, and which also results in a large spin Hall effect, comparable to that of platinum. The present results pave the way to realize room temperature antiferromagnetic spintronics and spin Hall effect based data storage devices.

We have studied the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in strained thin films of the frustrated antiferromagnet Mn$_{3}$NiN. The AHE does not follow the conventional relationships with magnetization or longitudinal conductivity and is enhanced relative to t hat expected from the magnetization in the antiferromagnetic state below $T_{mathrm{N}} = 260$,K. This enhancement is consistent with origins from the non-collinear antiferromagnetic structure, as the latter is closely related to that found in Mn$_{3}$Ir and Mn$_{3}$Pt where a large AHE is induced by the Berry curvature. As the Berry phase induced AHE should scale with spin-orbit coupling, yet larger AHE may be found in other members of the chemically flexible Mn$_{3}A$N structure.

We report the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in antiperovskite Mn$_{3}$NiN with substantial doping of Cu on the Ni site (i.e. Mn$_{3}$Ni$_{1-x}$Cu$_{x}$N), which stabilizes a noncollinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) order compatible with the AHE. Observed o n both sintered polycrystalline pieces and single crystalline films, the AHE does not scale with the net magnetization, contrary to the conventional ferromagnetic case. The existence of the AHE is explained through symmetry analysis based on the $Gamma_{rm 4g}$ AFM order in Cu doped Mn$_{3}$NiN. DFT calculations of the intrinsic contribution to the AHE reveal the non-vanishing Berry curvature in momentum space due to the noncollinear magnetic order. Combined with other attractive properties, antiperovskite Mn$_{3}$AN system offers great potential in AFM spintronics.
Hot spot of Berry curvature is usually found at Bloch band anti-crossings, where the Hall effect due to the Berry phase can be most pronounced. With small gaps there, the adiabatic limit for the existing formulations of Hall current can be exceeded i n a moderate electric field. Here we present a theory of non-adiabatic Hall effect, capturing non-perturbatively the across gap electron-hole excitations by the electric field. We find a general connection between the field induced electron-hole coherence and intrinsic Hall velocity. In coherent evolution, the electron-hole coherence can manifest as a sizeable ac Hall velocity. When environmental noise is taken into account, its joint action with the electric field favors a form of electron-hole coherence that is function of wavevector and field only, leading to a dc nonlinear Hall effect. The Hall current has all odd order terms in field, and still retains the intrinsic role of the Berry curvature. The quantitative demonstration uses the example of gapped Dirac cones, and our theory can be used to describe the bulk pseudospin Hall current in insulators with gapped edge such as graphene and 2D MnBi$_{2}$Te$_{4}$
We report a combined theoretical and experimental investigation of magnetic proximity and Hall transport in Pt/Cr bilayers. Density functional theory indicates that an interfacial magnetization can be induced in the Pt layer and a strong magnetocryst alline anisotropy with an easy axis out of plane arises in the antiferromagnet. A signal ascribed to the anomalous Hall effect is detected and associated to the interface between Pt and Cr layers. We show that this effect originates from the combination of proximity-induced magnetization and a nontrivial topology of the band structure at the interface.

We report on Cr doping effect in Mn3Sn polycrystalline films with both uniform and modulation doping. It is found that Cr doping with low concentration does not cause notable changes to the structural and magnetic properties of Mn3Sn, but it signific antly enhances the anomalous Hall conductivity, particularly for modulation-doped samples at low temperature. A Hall conductivity as high as 184.8 {Omega}-1 cm-1 is obtained for modulation-doped samples at 50 K, in a sharp contrast to vanishingly small values for undoped samples at the same temperature. We attribute the enhancement to the change of Fermi level induced by Cr doping
