Anisotropic magnetism and band evolution induced by ferromagnetic phase transition in titanium-based kagome ferromagnet SmTi3Bi4

Kagome magnets with diverse topological quantum responses are crucial for next-generation topological engineering.The anisotropic magnetism and band evolution induced by ferromagnetic phase transition(FMPT)is reported in a newly discov-ered titanium-based kagome ferromagnet SmTi3Bi4,which features a distorted Ti kagome lattice and Sm atomic zig-zag chains.Temperature-dependent resistivity,heat capacity,and magnetic susceptibility reveal a ferromagnetic ordering temperature Tc of 23.2 K.A large magnetic anisotropy,observed by applying the magnetic field along three crystallographic axes,identifies the b axis as the easy axis.Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with first-principles calculations unveils the characteristic kagome motif,including the Dirac point at the Fermi level and multiple van Hove singularities.Notably,a band splitting and gap closing attributed to FMPT is observed,originating from the exchange coupling between Sm 4f local moments and itinerant electrons of the kagome Ti atoms,as well as the time-reversal symmetry breaking induced by the long-range ferromagnetic or-der.Considering the large in-plane magnetization and the evolution of electronic structure under the influence of ferromagnetic ordering,such materials promise to be a new platform for exploring the intricate electronic properties and magnetic phases based on the kagome lattice.
