? 2022 Elsevier B.V.Ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2 has recently attracted a lot of interest on account of its large non-saturating magnetoresistance and the high carrier mobility common to topological semimetals. Moreover, the material also provides a platform for studying the interplay between the intrinsic magnetism and topological band structures, which generates a significant anomalous Hall effect. Chemical doping is the usual approach to adjust materials’ properties, and it can lead to fascinating results. Here, we present the influence of Fe-doping on the magnetic and transport properties of polycrystalline Co3Sn2S2. The Fe-doping suppresses the sample's magnetic order, increases the electrical resistivity, results in a skew-scattering contribution to the anomalous Hall effect and Fe impurities cause the Kondo effect. In addition, we report on the impact of Fe-doping on the magnetoresistance of Co3Sn2S2, where Fe-doping leads to a dramatic decline in magnetoresistance. Furthermore, the hysteresis behavior in the low magnetic field region, detected previously in nanoflake samples only, is observed in both pure and Fe-doped Co3Sn2S2 bulk samples. Our findings serve as a reference and source of inspiration for future chemical doping research on topological semimetals.
