文摘The angular dependence of magnetoresistance(MR)in antiferromagnetic half-Heusler HoAuSn single crystals has been systematically studied.Negative MR,as large as~99%,is observed at 9 T,is not restricted to the specific configuration of applied magnetics fields and current and can persist up to 20 K,much higher than the Ne'el temperature(T_(N)≈1.9 K).Experiments and first-principles calculations suggest that the observed large negative MR is derived from a magnetic field that reconstructs the band structure and induces a Weyl point,which changes the carrier concentration.
