Field Orientation Dependent Magnetic Phases In Weyl Semimetal Co3Sn2S2

Abstract

Magnetism plays a key role in the emergence of topological phenomena in the Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2, which exhibits a ferromagnetic (FM) interactions along the c-axis of the crystal and an antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions within the ab plane. Extensive studies on the temperature dependence of the magnetism with the magnetic field along the c-axis have uncovered a number of magnetic phases. Currently, the nature and origins of the reported magnetic phases are under debate. Here we report on magnetic field orientation effects on the magnetism in Co3Sn2S2. The shape of the hysteresis loop of the Hall resistance at a fixed temperature is found to change from rectangular to bow-tie-like as the magnetic field is tilted from the c-axis towards the ab plane, resembling that reported for magnetic fields along the c-axis as the temperature approaches the Curie temperature from below. Unlike their temperature-dependent counterparts, the newly observed bow-tie-like hysteresis loops show exchange bias. Our results showcase the contribution of the in-plane AFM interactions to the magnetism in Co3Sn2S2 and demonstrate a new way to tune its magnetic phases. They also shed light on the temperature-dependent magnetic phases occurring in the magnetic field along the c-axis of the crystal.
