The sample is mounted on a rotator and it rotates in the plane of magnetic field.

A longitudinal magnetoresistance has been measured in 1994 in bulk bP but never been understood [T. Strutz et al, Physica B 194 (1994) 1185].

LMR can arise in case of Fermi surface anisotropy [2]

Its sign can be negative or positive (and it can change) for different scattering mechanisms, from short range to long range scattering [3]

This picture still holds in a semiclassical regime [4]

Conclusions

In-plane magnetoresistance of a bP FET

The observed behavior is stronglyanisotropic

Fermi surface anisotropy, with the fieldrotating in the plane where anisotropy ispronounced, plays a crucial role inexplaining this phenomenon
