Abstract:
A comprehensive magnetotransport study including resistivity (ρxx), isothermal magnetoresistance, Hall resistivity (ρxy) and magnetization have been carried out at different temperatures on the Co2TiAl Heusler alloy. Co2TiAl alloy shows a paramagnetic to ferromagnetic (FM) transition below the Curie temperature (TC) ∼ 125 K. In the FM region, resistivity and magnetoresistance reveal a spin flip electron-magnon scattering and the Hall resistivity unveils the anomalous Hall resistivity. Scaling of anomalous Hall resistivity with resistivity establishes the extrinsic scattering process responsible for the anomalous Hall resistivity; however skew scattering is the dominant mechanism compared to the side-jump contribution. A one to one correspondence between magnetoresistance and side-jump contribution to anomalous Hall resistivity verifies the electron-magnon scattering being the source of side-jump contribution to the anomalous Hall resistivity.
