Carrier density is one of the key controlling factors of material properties, particularly in controlling the essential correlations in strongly correlated materials. Typically, carrier density is externally tuned by doping or gating, and remains fixed below room temperature. Strangely, the carrier density in correlated semimetals is often found to vary sensitively to the external controls of small energy scale, such as temperature, magnetic field, and pressure. Here using the recently discovered nickelate superconductor as an example, we demonstrate a rather generic low-energy mechanism that short-range (non-collinear magnetic) correlation can reversely modulate the carrier density as well. Such a mutual influence between correlation and carrier density provides an extra ingredient for bifurcation of emergent phenomena. This special feature of correlated semimetals explains their versatile carrier density at low energy, and opens up new possibilities of functionalizing these materials.
