We present magnetoresistivity measurements in high-quality single crystals of the Nowotny chimney ladder compound Ru$_2$Sn$_3$. We find a linear and nonsaturating magnetoresistance up to 20 T. The magnetoresistance changes with the magnetic field orientation at small magnetic fields, from a positive to a negative curvature. Above 5 T, the magnetoresistance shows no sign of saturation up to 20 T for any measured angle. The shape of the anisotropy in the magnetoresistance remains when increasing temperature and Kohlers rule is obeyed. We associate the linear and nonsaturating magnetoresistance to a small Fermi surface with hot spots, possibly formed as a consequence of the structural transition. We discuss the relevance of electron-electron interactions under magnetic fields and aspects of the topologically nontrivial properties expected in Ru$_2$Sn$_3$.

The band structure of high carrier density metal CrP features an interesting crossing at the Y point of the Brillouin zone. The crossing, which is protected by the nonsymmorphic symmetry of the space group, results in a hybrid, semi-Dirac-like energy
-momentum dispersion relation near Y. The linear energy-momentum dispersion relation along Y-$Gamma$ is reminiscent of the observed band structure in several semimetallic extremely large magnetoresistance (XMR) materials. We have measured the transverse magnetoresistance of CrP up to 14 T at temperatures as low as $sim$ 16 mK. Our data reveal a nonsaturating, quadratic magnetoresistance as well as the behaviour of the so-called `turn-on temperature in the temperature dependence of resistivity. Despite the difference in the magnitude of the magnetoresistance and the fact that CrP is not a semimetal, these features are qualitatively similar to the observations reported for XMR materials. Thus, the high-field electrical transport studies of CrP offer the prospect of identifying the possible origin of the nonsaturating, quadratic magnetoresistance observed in a wide range of metals.
Ambipolar transport is a commonly occurring theme in semimetals and semiconductors. Here we present an analytical formulation of the conductivity for a two-band system. Electron and hole carrier densities and their respective conductivities are mappe
d into a two-dimensional unit-less phase space. Provided that one of the carrier densities is known, the dimensionless phase space can be probed through magnetoresistance measurements. This formulation of the two-band model for conductivity is applied to magnetoresistance experiments on Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$. While previous such measurements focused on the low-temperature limit, we cover a broad temperature range and find negative magnetoresistance in an intermediate interval below the electronic transition at 48 K. The low-temperature magnetoresistance in Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ is consistent with a two-band structure. However, the model fails to describe the full temperature and magnetic field dependence. Negative magnetoresistance found in an intermediate temperature range is, for example, not captured by this model. We thus conclude that the electronic and magnetic structure in this intermediate temperature range render the system beyond the most simple two-band model.
We have determined the terahertz spectrum of the chiral langasite Ba$_3$NbFe$_3$Si$_2$O$_{14}$ by means of synchrotron-radiation measurements. Two excitations are revealed that are shown to have a different nature. The first one, purely magnetic, is
observed at low temperature in the magnetically ordered phase and is assigned to a magnon. The second one persits far into the paramagnetic phase and exhibits both an electric and a magnetic activity at slightly different energies. This magnetoelectric excitation is interpreted in terms of atomic rotations and requires a helical electric polarization.
The chalcogenide Bi$_2$Se$_3$ can attain the three dimensional (3D) Dirac semimetal state under the influence of strain and microstrain. Here we report the presnece of large linear magnetoresistance in such a Bi$_2$Se$_3$ crystal. The magnetoresistan
ce has quadratic form at low fields which crossovers to linear above 4 T. The temperature dependence of magnetoresistance scales with carrier mobility and the crossover field scales with inverse of mobility. Our analysis suggest that the linear magnetoresistance in our system has a classical origin and arises from the scattering of high mobility 3D Dirac electrons from crystalline inhomogeneities. We observe that the charged selenium vacancies are strongly screened by high mobility Dirac electrons and the neutral crystalline defects are the main scattering center for transport mechanism. Our analysis suggests that both the resistivity and the magnetoresistance have their origin in scattering of charge carriers from neutral defects.
The antiferromagnetic Ruddlesden-Popper ruthenate Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$ is a model polar metal, combining inversion symmetry breaking with metallic conductivity; however, its low temperature ($T < 48$ K) crystal structure and Fermi surface topology remai
n ambiguous despite numerous measurements and theoretical studies. Here we perform both first principles calculations with static correlations and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy experiments to construct a complete model of Ca$_3$Ru$_2$O$_7$, reconciling inconsistencies among interpretations of electrical transport, thermopower measurements, and momentum- and energy-resolved band dispersions. The solution relies on treating the interplay among Coulomb repulsion, magnetic ordering, spin-orbit interactions, and the RuO$_6$ octahedral degrees-of-freedom on equal footing. For temperatures $30<T < 48$ K, we propose weak electron-electron interactions produce a symmetry-preserving metal-semimetal transition with Weyl nodes in proximity to the Fermi level, whereas a new orthorhombic $Pn2_1a$ structure emerges for $T<30$ K, exhibiting charge and spin density waves from enhanced Coulombic interactions.
