Magnetic and electric properties of the metallic kagome antiferromagnet CrRhAs

CrRhAs is an antiferromagnetic kagome metal predicted to host a nontrivial spin texture with vector spin chirality [Huang $\mathit{\text{et}}\mathit{\text{al.}}$, $\mathit{\text{npj}}\mathit{\text{Quantum}}\mathit{\text{Mater.}}$ $\mathbf{\text{8}}$, 32 (2023)]. We report the synthesis and basic characterization of CrRhAs single crystals, which exhibit an antiferromagnetic transition with $T_{\mathrm{N}}$ = 150~K, evidenced by electrical transport, heat capacity, and magnetization measurements. Hall resistivity varies linearly with magnetic field, i.e., there is no nonlinear Hall contribution. Intriguingly, the Hall coefficient changes sign between the configurations of $j\parallel ab,H\perp ab$ and $j\parallel c,H\perp c$, which is likely connected to a peculiar topology of the Fermi surface. Furthermore, for $j\parallel ab$, the Hall coefficient shows a pronounced and continuous enhancement below $T_{\mathrm{N}}$, signaling a significant reconstruction of the Fermi surface or an extra scattering from the magnons. Our results offer guidance for exploring anomalous electric transport phenomena in exotic magnetic systems.
