Abstract
We have measured the longitudinal resistivity and the Hall resistivity in the ab plane of highly c-axis-oriented MgB2 thin films. In the normal state, the Hall coefficient (RH) behaves as RH∼T with increasing temperature (T) up to 130 K and then deviates from that linear T dependence at higher temperatures. The T2 dependence of the cotangent of the Hall angle is only observed above 130 K. The mixed-state Hall effect reveals no sign anomaly over a wide range of current densities from 102 to 104 A/cm2 and for magnetic fields up to 5 T.
