Abstract
This study calculated the magnetoresistance (MR) in the Dirac electron system, Dresselhaus–Kip–Kittel (DKK) model, and nodal-line semimetals based on the semiclassical Boltzmann theory, with particular focus on the detailed energy dispersion structure. The negative off-diagonal effective-mass was found to induce negative transverse MR owing to the energy dispersion effect. The impact of the off-diagonal mass was more prominent in case of a linear energy dispersion. Further, Dirac electron systems could realize negative MR even if the Fermi surface was perfectly spherical. The obtained negative MR in the DKK model may explain the long-standing mystery in p-type Si.
