Computational search for materials having a giant anomalous Hall effect in the pyrochlore and spinel crystal structures

Sean Sullivan, Seungjun Lee, Nathan J. Szymanski +4

Ferromagnetic pyrochlore and spinel materials with topological flat bands are of interest for their potential to exhibit a giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE). In this work, we prese…
