The anomalous Hall effect is a phenomenon that occurs in magnetic metals, where a voltage is generated perpendicular to the magnetic field and current flow. This effect is usually observed in ferromagnetic materials, where electron spins are aligned. The alignment of spins leads to the manifestation of the anomalous Hall effect below a specific temperature
