a-f Resistance measured as a function of temperature, and scanning electron micrographs of the six investigated focused ion beam-fabricated devices, with helical pitch L, rod radius R, conducting cross sectional area A, and contact separation D: a, left-handed (LH) helix with L = 1.0 μm, R = 1.0 μm, A = ~ 0.18 μm2, D = 16.4 μm. b, right-handed (RH) helix with L = 1.0 μm, R = 1.0 μm, A = ~ 0.18 μm2, D = 16.8 μm. c, achiral (AC) rod with A = ~ 0.23 μm2, rod length = 9.8 μm and D = 15.9 μm. d, LH helix with L = 0.5 μm, R = 0.5 μm, A = ~ 0.06 μm2, D = 10 μm. e, RH helix with L = 2.0 μm, R = 2.1 μm, A = ~2 μm2, D = 25.7 μm. f, Hall bar with thickness 1.6 μm, width 4.1 μm, and contact separation (widest separation) 15.7 μm. In all cases, the Co3Sn2S2 structures were fabricated by Ga ion milling, and fixed to patterned Au electrodes on Al2O3 substrates with in-situ Pt deposition. All scale bars are 10 μm.
