The anomalous Hall effect (AHE), a fundamental transport phenomenon of electrons in solids, has been believed to appear in ferromagnetic materials. Very recently AHE is revealed in noncollinear antiferromagnetic compounds. In this work, we have systematically investigated the AHE in antiferromagnetic materials Mn3X (X=Ir, Ge, Sn, Ga), where noncollinear 120-degree type antiferromagnetic spin order exists in the quasi-layered lattice. Assisted by the symmetry analysis, we demonstrate the strong anisotropy of the intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity that is determined by the Berry curvature in the band structure. Our work well interprets recent experiment observations and predicts novel antiferromagnetic material candidates for the spintronic application.
