Nonlinear charge and thermal transport properties induced by orbital magnetic moment in chiral crystal cobalt monosilicide

Abstract

The existence of exotic singularities in momentum space, such as spin-1 excitations and Rarita-Schwinger-Weyl (RSW) fermions, has been discussed so far to explore unique phenomena in the nonmagnetic B20-type compounds. Meanwhile, the Nonlinear Thermo-Electric (NCTE) charge and thermal Hall effect, a response proportional to the cross product of the electric field and temperature gradient, is expected in this chiral material, yet remains unexplored in B20-type compounds. Here, based on $abinitio$ calculations and symmetry analysis, we quantitatively analyze the NCTE charge and thermal Hall effects in cobalt monosilicide, obtaining experimentally measurable values of NCTE charge and thermal Hall current along [111] direction, which is not expected for second-order current responses to the DC electric field. Furthermore, we demonstrate that these significant responses are enhanced around RSW fermions and spin-1 excitations. Additionally, we clarify that the NCTE Hall effect is solely governed by orbital magnetic moments due to the cancellation of Berry curvature contributions in cubic chiral crystals.
