Abstract
The electron transport properties of highly c-axis oriented MnBi thin films of various thicknesses have been investigated. Samples are metallic but the low temperature resistivity shows an unusual T3 dependence. Transverse Hall effect measurements show that both the ordinary and anomalous Hall coefficients decrease with decreasing temperature below 300 K, but the ordinary Hall coefficient (R0) undergoes a sign reversal around 105 K, where the magnetic anisotropy also changes sign. Analysis of the Hall data for various samples shows that the anomalous Hall coefficient (Rs) exhibits a strong ρ2 dependence, where ρ is the longitudinal resistivity.
