Pressure-induced PT Symmetry Breaking in LaMnSi
Le résumé fourni par la source
We investigate the magnetotransport properties of the antiferromagnetic metal LaMnSi, in which the collinear magnetic order breaks both spatial inversion (P) and time-reversal (T) symmetry yet preserves their combined PT symmetry. High pressure is found to suppress this PT-symmetric antiferromagnetic phase, inducing a transition into a PT-broken state characterized by a large anomalous Hall effect. Based on symmetry analysis, we propose a candidate magnetic structure for the high-pressure phase. Subsequent band calculations for this structure reveal the emergence of band splitting and orbital-dependent spin polarization. Our results establish LaMnSi as an ideal platform for controlling PT symmetry breaking via external parameters.
