Intrinsic anomalous Hall effect under anisotropic magnetic dipole versus conventional magnetic dipole

Abstract: We theoretically investigate the intrinsic anomalous Hall effect in two magnetically ordered systems: One is the ferromagnetic dipole system, and the other is the anisotropic magnetic dipole system, the latter of which has been proposed as a microscopic indicator of the anomalous Hall effect in antiferromagnets with the negligibly small magnetization. We show their similarity and difference in the anomalous Hall effect by analyzing the fundamental tight-binding model on a two-dimensional square lattice. We find that the magnitudes of the anomalous Hall effect in the two systems are similar to each other, while the magnetization in the anisotropic magnetic dipole system is much smaller than that in the ferromagnetic dipole system; this indicates that the microscopic mechanisms are different from each other. We show that such a difference appears in the momentum-resolved Berry curvature resulting from the different types of magnetic order parameters. We also show that the anomalous Hall effect in the anisotropic magnetic dipole system is enhanced when the magnitude of the spin-orbit coupling is smaller than that of the magnetic mean field. Our results provide a possibility of the giant anomalous Hall effect in collinear and coplanar antiferromagnetic systems with the anisotropic magnetic dipole.
