TaRhTe4 is a type-II Weyl semimetal, hosting minimal Weyl points in close proximity to the Fermi level [1]. One of the most intriguing transport phenomena associated with Weyl physics is the chiral anomaly-induced negative magneto-resistance observed when magnetic and electric fields are parallel [2]. In this study, we employ a systematic measurement approach, measuring magnetoresistance along various crystallographic directions. We observe a negative sign, considered a signature of the chiral anomaly, but notably, this effect is present only along certain directions. Furthermore, this negative magneto-resistance persists up to room temperature, suggesting that TaRhTe4 possesses unique properties within the emerging family of Weyl semimetals.
