Hexagonal D019-type Mn3Z alloys that possess large anomalous and topological-like Hall effects have attracted much attention due to their great potential in antiferromagnetic spintronic devices. Herein, we report the preparation of Mn3Ga films in both tetragonal and hexagonal phases with a tuned Ta/Ru seed layer on a thermally oxidized Si substrate. Large coercivity together with large anomalous Hall resistivity is found in the Ta-only sample with a mixed tetragonal phase. By increasing the thickness of the Ru layer, the tetragonal phase gradually disappears and a relatively pure hexagonal phase is obtained in the Ta(5)/Ru(30) buffered sample. Further magnetic and transport measurements revealed that the anomalous Hall conductivity nearly vanishes in the pure hexagonal sample, while an abnormal asymmetric hump structure emerges in the low field region. The extracted additional Hall term is robust in a large temperature range and presents a sign reversal above 200 K. The abnormal Hall properties are propos...
