Helical magnets are emerging as a novel class of materials for spintronics and sensor applications; however, research on their charge- and spin-transport properties in a thin film form is less explored. Herein, we report the temperature and magnetic field-dependent charge transport properties of a highly crystalline MnP nanorod thin film over a wide temperature range (2 K <T< 350 K). The MnP nanorod films of ~100 nm thickness were grown on Si substrates at 500 °C using molecular beam epitaxy. The temperature-dependent resistivityρ(T) data exhibit a metallic behavior (dρ/dT> 0) over the entire measured temperature range. However, large negative magnetoresistance (Δρ/ρ) of up to 12% is observed below ~50 K at which the system enters a stable helical (screw) magnetic state. In this temperature regime, the Δρ(H)/ρ(0) dependence also shows a magnetic field-manipulated CONE + FAN phase coexistence. The observed magnetoresistance is dominantly governed by the intergranular spin dependent tunneling mechanism. These findings pinpoint a correlation between the transport and magnetism in this helimagnetic system.
