Abstract

We report anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and transport properties of trigonal Cr$_5$Te$_8$ (tr-Cr$_5$Te$_8$) single crystals. The electrical resistivity as well as the Seebeck coefficient shows a clear kink at the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition of tr-Cr$_5$Te$_8$, which is also confirmed by the heat capacity measurement. The scaling behavior between anomalous Hall resistivity $\rho^A_{xy}$ and longitudinal resistivity $\rho_{xx}$ is linear below $T_c$. Further analysis suggests that the AHE in tr-Cr$_5$Te$_8$ is dominated by the skew-scattering mechanism rather than the intrinsic or extrinsic side-jump mechanism.
