Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We report our discovery of a temperature-independent anomalous Hall effect (AHE) from 15 mK to 300 K temperature occurring in a pure bismuth transport device whose average thickness is 68 nm. This surprising behavior is accompanied with an expected temperature-dependent longitudinal resistance consistent with semimetallic bismuth. However, it surprisingly showed no hint of a magnetoresistance for magnetic fields between ±30 T. Even though bismuth is a diamagnetic material that a priori does not break time-reversal symmetry, our analysis of the reconstructed conductivities points toward the AHE to be of the intrinsic type that does not emanate from magnetic impurities. Finally, as pure bismuth has been shown numerically to host a Berry curvature at its surface that breaks inversion symmetry, we propose it as a possible explanation for the temperature-independent AHE observed here.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
