Anomalous Hall and Nernst effects in the Two-Dimensional ferromagnetic metal FePd2Te2

Abstract
The transverse thermoelectric effect enables simpler, more flexible thermoelectric devices by generating electricity perpendicular to heat flow, offering promising solutions for waste heat recovery and solid-state cooling applications. Here, we report a striking observation of zero-field anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) below TC in the two-dimensional metallic magnet FePd2Te2. The anomalous Nernst signal Syx^A peaks a maximum value of 0.15 μV/K at 100 K, much larger than that of conventional FM materials. Remarkably, the derived ratio alpha_ij/sigma_ij in FePd2Te2 approaches the fundamental limit of 86 μV/K. Our findings suggest a dominant Berry curvature contribution to the ANE. The observed giant zero-field anomalous Nernst response in 2D FePd2Te2 not only advances fundamental understanding of transverse thermoelectricity in layered magnets, but also provides this material as a promising candidate for practical thermoelectric spintronic applications.
