High-mobility two-dimensional carriers originating from pairs of Weyl nodes in magnetic Weyl semimetals is highly desired for accessing exotic quantum transport phenomena and for topological electronics applications. Here, we report thickness- and angle-dependent magnetotransport, including quantum oscillations, in magnetic Weyl semimetal SrRuO3 epitaxial films grown by machine-learning-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The exceptionally high quality of our SrRuO3 films enables observation of the quantum transport of Weyl fermions even when the film thickness is as thin as 10 nm. The quantum oscillations for the 10-nm film show a high quantum mobility of 3500 cm2/Vs, a light cyclotron mass of 0.25m0 (m0: the free electron mass in a vacuum), and two-dimensional angular dependence. When the film thickness is 63 nm, which is too large to observe the quantum confinement effect, we still observe the two-dimensional angular dependence of the quantum oscillations, suggesting that the high-mobility two-dimensional carriers originate from surface Fermi arcs. By measuring the magnetoresistance up to 52 T, we also observed the saturation of the negative magnetoresistance (MR) in the quantum limit, confirming the negative MR is induced by the chiral anomaly of Weyl nodes in SrRuO3. These findings make SrRuO3 an intriguing platform for topological oxide electronics and pave the way for exploring exotic quantum transport phenomena in magnetic Weyl semimetals, which can be controlled by both magnetic and electric fields.
