The nonlinear Hall effect is mostly studied as a Berry curvature dipole effect in nonmagnetic materials, which depends linearly on the relaxation time. On the other hand, in magnetic materials, an intrinsic nonlinear Hall effect can exist, which does not depend on the relaxation time. Here we show that the intrinsic nonlinear Hall effect can be observed in an antiferromagnetic metal: tetragonal CuMnAs, and the corresponding conductivity can reach the order of mA/V$^2$ based on density functional theory calculations. The dependence on the chemical potential of such nonlinear Hall conductivity can be qualitatively explained by a tilted massive Dirac model. Moreover, we demonstrate its strong temperature-dependence and briefly discuss its competition with the second order Drude conductivity. Finally, a complete survey of magnetic point groups are presented, providing guidelines for finding candidate materials with the intrinsic nonlinear Hall effect.

An intriguing property of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulator (TI) is the existence of surface states with spin-momentum locking, which offers a new frontier of exploration in spintronics. Here, we report the observation of a new type of Hal
l effect in a 3D TI Bi2Se3 film. The Hall resistance scales linearly with both the applied electric and magnetic fields and exhibits a {pi}/2 angle offset with respect to its longitudinal counterpart, in contrast to the usual angle offset of {pi}/4 between the linear planar Hall effect and the anisotropic magnetoresistance. This novel nonlinear planar Hall effect originates from the conversion of a nonlinear transverse spin current to a charge current due to the concerted actions of spin-momentum locking and time reversal symmetry breaking, which also exists in a wide class of non-centrosymmetric materials with a large span of magnitude. It provides a new way to characterize and utilize the nonlinear spin-to-charge conversion in a variety of topological quantum materials.
We study the Hall conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas under an inhomogeneous magnetic field $B(x)$. First, we prove using the quantum kinetic theory that an odd magnetic field can lead to a purely nonlinear Hall response. Second, consideri
ng a real-space magnetic dipole consisting of a sign-changing magnetic field and based on numerical semiclassical dynamics, we unveil a parametric resonance involving the cyclotron ratio and a characteristic width of $B(x)$, which can greatly enhance the Hall response. Different from previous mechanisms that rely on the bulk Berry curvature dipole, here, the effect largely stems from boundary states associated with the real-space magnetic dipole. Our findings pave a new way to engineer current rectification and higher harmonic generation in two-dimensional materials having or not crystal inversion symmetry.
Recent studies have shown that moir{e} flat bands in a twisted bilayer graphene(TBG) can acquire nontrivial Berry curvatures when aligned with hexagonal boron nitride substrate [1, 2], which can be manifested as a correlated Chern insulator near the
3/4 filling [3, 4]. In this work, we show that the large Berry curvatures in the moir{e} bands lead to strong nonlinear Hall(NLH) effect in a strained TBG with general filling factors. Under a weak uniaxial strain $sim 0.1%$, the Berry curvature dipole which characterizes the nonlinear Hall response can be as large as $sim$ 200{AA}, exceeding the values of all previously known nonlinear Hall materials [5-14] by two orders of magnitude. The dependence of the giant NLH effect as a function of electric gating, strain and twist angle is further investigated systematically. Importantly, we point out that the giant NLH effect appears generically for twist angle near the magic angle due to the strong susceptibility of nearly flat moir{e} bands to symmetry breaking induced by strains. Our results establish TBG as a practical platform for tunable NLH effect and novel transport phenomena driven by nontrivial Berry phases.
The amorphous iron-germanium system ($a$-Fe$_x$Ge$_{1-x}$) lacks long-range structural order and hence lacks a meaningful Brillouin zone. The magnetization of aFeGe is well explained by the Stoner model for Fe concentrations $x$ above the onset of ma
gnetic order around $x=0.4$, indicating that the local order of the amorphous structure preserves the spin-split density of states of the Fe-$3d$ states sufficiently to polarize the electronic structure despite $mathbf{k}$ being a bad quantum number. Measurements reveal an enhanced anomalous Hall resistivity $rho_{xy}^{mathrm{AH}}$ relative to crystalline FeGe; this $rho_{xy}^{mathrm{AH}}$ is compared to density functional theory calculations of the anomalous Hall conductivity to resolve its underlying mechanisms. The intrinsic mechanism, typically understood as the Berry curvature integrated over occupied $mathbf{k}$-states but shown here to be equivalent to the density of curvature integrated over occupied energies in aperiodic materials, dominates the anomalous Hall conductivity of $a$-Fe$_x$Ge$_{1-x}$ ($0.38 leq x leq 0.61$). The density of curvature is the sum of spin-orbit correlations of local orbital states and can hence be calculated with no reference to $mathbf{k}$-space. This result and the accompanying Stoner-like model for the intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity establish a unified understanding of the underlying physics of the anomalous Hall effect in both crystalline and disordered systems.
Response properties that are purely intrinsic to physical systems are of paramount importance in physics research, as they probe fundamental properties of band structures and allow quantitative calculation and comparison with experiment. For anomalou
s Hall transport in magnets, an intrinsic effect can appear at the second order to the applied electric field. We show that this intrinsic second-order anomalous Hall effect is associated with an intrinsic band geometric property -- the dipole moment of Berry-connection polarizability (BCP) in momentum space. The effect has scaling relation and symmetry constraints that are distinct from the previously studied extrinsic contributions. Particularly, in antiferromagnets with $mathcal{PT}$ symmetry, the intrinsic effect dominates. Combined with first-principles calculations, we demonstrate the first quantitative evaluation of the effect in the antiferromagnet Mn$_{2}$Au. We show that the BCP dipole and the resulting intrinsic second-order conductivity are pronounced around band near degeneracies. Importantly, the intrinsic response exhibits sensitive dependence on the N{e}el vector orientation with a $2pi$ periodicity, which offers a new route for electric detection of the magnetic order in $mathcal{PT}$-invariant antiferromagnets.
