Fig. 4

Comparison of the magnetization-dependent anomalous Nernst thermopower (|\(S_{yx}^A\)|) of various ferromagnetic metals (see Materials and methods for details), chiral antiferromagnet Mn3Sn and Co2MnGa extending the plot of Ikhlas et al.9. The shaded region indicates the linear relation for conventional ferromagnetic metals |\(S_{yx}^A\)| = |\(N_{yx}^A\)|µ0M, with |\(N_{yx}^A\)| ranging from 0.05 µV K−1 T−1 to 1 µV K−1 T−1. The red dotted line indicates the upper limit of the measured value of |\(S_{yx}^A\)| in a conventional ferromagnet. The Nernst signal for Co2MnGa falls out of the scope of this relation, similar to Mn3Sn. The |\(S_{yx}^A\)| for Co2MnGa shows the largest value reported among ferromagnetic metals at room temperature
