Popis: | The recent realization of epitaxial SrCoO$_3$ thin films has triggered a renewed interest in their electronic, magnetic, and ionic properties. Here we uncover several unusual magneto-transport properties of this compound, suggesting that it hosts persistent spin fluctuation down to low temperatures. We achieve the metallic SrCoO$_3$ with record-low resistivity from insulating SrCoO$_{2.5}$ by the ionic liquid gating. We find a linear relationship between the anomalous Hall resistivity and the longitudinal resistivity, which cannot be accounted for by the conventional mechanisms. We theoretically propose that the impurity induced chiral spin fluctuation gives rise to such a dependence. The existence of spin fluctuation manifests itself as negatively enhanced magneto-resistance of SrCoO$_3$ when the temperature approaches zero. Our study brings further insight into the unique spin state of SrCoO$_3$ and unveils a novel skew scattering mechanism for the anomalous Hall effect. Comment: 8 pages, 9 figures |
