Abstract
We report the observation of an extremely large non-saturating magnetoresistance (MR) exceeding one million per cent at a magnetic field of 11 tesla in gapless HgCdTe. The samples exhibit a maximum of MR at a temperature of T = 75K corresponding to the semiconductorsemimetal transition, where a linear carrier dispersion appears. We attribute the observed giant MR to an opening of the gap due to Landau quantization of the Kane fermions strengthened by the absence of localization in such a purely gapless system at zero magnetic field.
