Abstract

In this paper, we carried out a systematic study on the magnetic and electrical transport properties of weak-itinerant ferrimagnet FeCr2Te4 single crystal. We observe a substantial suppression of electron-magnon scattering and spin-fluctuation scattering coefficients with increasing magnetic field below the magnetic ordering temperature ≈123 K. Temperature dependent magnetoresistance exhibits a maximum in the close vicinity of the Curie temperature (Tc) associated with paramagnetic to ferrimagnetic transition. Our Hall resistivity measurements suggest that the obtained carrier concentration is directly related to the magnetoresistance behavior near the transition temperature. Angle dependent measurements show that the magnetoresistance is anisotropic near Tc.
