“…2a). [23][24][25][26] By a comprehensive study of Shubonikov-de Haas (SdH) and de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) quantum oscillations (QOs) in the single crystal, we found that the Fermi surface (FS) of AuTe 2 Br mainly consists of separated hole and electron tubes with open orbits along the stacking direction. Moreover, our transport measurements show that the electrons and holes are highly anisotropic while both exhibit ultrahigh mobility at a level of 10 5 cm 2 V −1 s −1 at low temperature.…”

We report the crystal and electronic structures of a non-centrosymmetric quasi-two-dimensional (2D), candidate of topological semimetal AuTe2Br. The Fermi surface of this layered compound consists of 2D-like, topological trivial electron and non-trivial hole pockets which host a Dirac cone along the kz direction. Our transport measurements on the single crystals show highly anisotropic, compensated low-density electrons and holes, both of which exhibit ultrahigh mobility at a level of 10 5 cm 2 V −1 s −1 at low temperature.The highly mobile, compensated carriers lead a non-saturated, parabolic magnetoresistance as large as 3 × 10 5 in single-crystalline AuTe2Br in a magnetic field up to 58 T.

“…AuTe 2 Br belongs to the family of gold tellurium halide AuTe 2 X (X = Cl, Br, I). AuTe 2 X compounds were first found in 1970 by Rabenau et al [1]; since then, most works on these compounds have focused on their crystal and Fermi surface structure [1][2][3][4][5]. AuTe 2 X compounds have an arm-chair shaped layered structure consisting of gold and tellurium atom network separated by halogen atoms.…”

Topological semimetal (TSM) AuTe2Br thin flakes have been studied by Raman spectroscopy and magneto-transport measurement. The angle-resolved polarized Raman spectrum of AuTe2Br (bulk and thin flake) shows strong anisotropy. Together with high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM), we establish a non-destructive method to determine the crystallographic orientation of AuTe2Br flakes. At high temperature (T > 50 K), the magneto-resistance (MR) of AuTe2Br thin flakes shows typical parabolic-like behavior, which can be well fitted by the two-fluid model. However, at low temperature (T ⩽ 30 K), the MR of thin flakes (<17 nm) clearly deviates from the two-fluid model as well as from the Kohler’s rule, suggesting a new type of scattering emerging below 30 K. Several possible scattering mechanisms are discussed and the respective corrections to MR are compared with our experimental data. In addition, the conductivity of these metallic crystals is also found to be highly anisotropic, with the hole mobility along the a axis about five times higher than that along the c axis.
