Abstract
Unexpected transport behavior can arise due to anisotropic single-particle scattering in multiband systems. Specifically, we show within a semiclassical Boltzmann approach beyond the relaxation-time approximation that anisotropic scattering between electronlike and holelike Fermi surfaces generically leads to negative transport times, which in turn cause negative magnetoresistance, an extremum in the Hall coefficient, and a reduction of the resistivity. The anisotropy required for this to occur decreases with increasing mismatch between the Fermi-surface radii.
