Abstract: | Due to non-saturating magnetoresistance (MR) and the special compensation mechanism, the Weyl semimetal TaAs single crystal has attracted considerable attention in condensed matter physics. Herein, we use maximum entropy mobility spectrum analysis (MEMSA) to extract charge carrier information by fitting the experimentally measured longitudinal and transverse electric transport curves of TaAs. The carrier types and the number of bands are obtained without any hypothesis. Study of the temperature dependence shows details of carrier property evolution. Our quantitative results explain the non-saturated magnetoresistance and Hall sign change phenomena of TaAs. |
