- The recent discoveries of surperisingly large anomalous Hall effect in chiral antiderromagnets have triggered extensive research efforts in various fields, ranging from topological condensed-matter physics to antiferromagnetic spintronics, and energy harvesting technology. However, such AHE-hosting antiferromagnetic materials are rare in nature. Herein, we demonstrate that Mn2.4Ga, a Fermi-level-tuned kagome antiferromagnet, has a large anomalous Hall conductivity of about 150 Ω-1cm-1 at room temperature that surpasses the usual high values (i.e.,20-50 Ω-1cm-1) observed so far in two outstanding kagome antiferromagnets, Mn3Sn and Mn3Ge. The spin triangular structure of Mn2.4Ga guarantees a nonzero Berry curvature while generates only a weak net moment in the kagome plane.Moreover, the anomalous Hall conductivity exhibits a sign reversal with the rotation of a small magnetic field, which can be ascribed to the field-controlled chirality of the spin triangular structure. Our theoretical calculation indicate that the large AHE in Mn2.4Ga originates from a significantly enhanced Berry curvature associated wiht the tuning of the Fermi level close to the Weyl points. These properties, together with the ability to manipulate moment orientations using a moderate external magnetic field, make Mn2.4Ga extremely exciting for future antiferromagnetic spintronics.
