“…Additionally, a robust TlnT scaling law of the ANC over the temperature range of 40 to 140 K is observed in all studied samples, suggesting an intrinsic origin of the ANC. Considering the common opposite sign of the anomalous Nernst and Hall angles in many magnetic topological materials, the research offers an applicable scheme for optimizing the Nernst thermoelectrics.…”
