Abstract
The magnetic Weyl semimetal $\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{o}}_{3}\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{n}}_{2}{\mathrm{S}}_{2}$ exhibits large anomalous Hall effect (AHE) due to its nontrivial band topology with enhanced Berry curvature. Here we investigate the pressure effect on the AHE of $\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{o}}_{3}\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{n}}_{2}{\mathrm{S}}_{2}$ up to 12 GPa with a palm cubic anvil cell apparatus and first-principles calculations simulation. We find that both the ferromagnetic transition temperature and the AHE are suppressed monotonically upon the application of high pressure. Data analyses revealed that in the investigated pressure range the intrinsic mechanism due to Berry curvature dominates the AHE as reflected by the validation of ${\ensuremath{\rho}}_{xy}^{A}\ensuremath{\propto}{\ensuremath{\rho}}_{xx}^{2}$. However, both the anomalous Hall conductivity and anomalous Hall angle are reduced gradually into the regime for conventional ferromagnetic metals with trivial band topology. Combined with theoretical calculations, our results indicate that the distance between Weyl points with opposite chirality in $\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{o}}_{3}\mathrm{S}{\mathrm{n}}_{2}{\mathrm{S}}_{2}$ is substantially reduced accompanying the suppression of ferromagnetism by pressure, thus providing an experimental route to tune the AHE of magnetic Weyl semimetals via modifying the nontrivial band topology.
