Spin-reorientation Driven Temperature Dependent Intrinsic Anomalous Hall Conductivity in Fe$_3$Ge, a Ferromagnetic Topological Metal

We investigate the temperature dependence of the intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity in Fe$_3$Ge, which is a ferromagnetic topological metal. We observe a significant anisotropy in the anomalous Hall conductivity between in-plane and out-of-plane directions. We further identify that the total Hall conductivity is contributed extrinsically due to the skew-scattering mechanism and intrinsically due to nonzero Berry curvature in the momentum space. Most importantly, we demonstrate the temperature dependence of the intrinsic Hall contribution, a rare phenomenon to visualize experimentally, due to tuning the easy-magnetic axis from the out-of-plane to the in-plane with decreasing temperature. We also show that the extrinsic Hall conductivity decreases with temperature as $σ_{xy}^{ext}(T)=\frac{σ_{xy0}^{ext}}{(aT+1)^2}$ due to electron-phonon scattering.
