Abstract
By combining symmetry analysis and direct density functional calculations
including the spin-orbit coupling, we demonstrate that anomalous Hall
effect can be observed in not only germanides with general formula
RMn2Ge2, where R is a rare-earth ion or Y. Our calculations
predict a large anomalous Hall conductivity in LaMn2Si2, with a
non-zero component of -360 S/cm,
accompanied by a pronounced magneto-optical response. Remarkably,
electron doping of LaMn2Si2 is expected to substantially enhance
the Hall conductivity, with values reaching up to -650 S/cm. These
results suggest that silicides with general formula RM2Si2 can be
an interesting platform for studying anomalous Hall effect.
