| الوصف: | The intrinsic spin Hall conductivity and the anomalous Hall conductivity of ferromagnetic L1$_0$-CoPt are studied using first principle calculations of the spin Berry and Berry curvatures, respectively. We find that the Berry curvature and the spin Berry curvature exhibit different symmetry with respect to that of the band structure. The Berry curvature preserves the $C_{4v}$ crystal rotation symmetry along the c-axis whereas the symmetry of the spin Berry curvature reduces to $C_{2v}$. Contributions to the Berry curvature and the spin Berry curvature are classified by the spin character of bands crossing the Fermi level. We find that the reduced symmetry of the spin Berry curvature is due to band crossing points with opposite spin characters. From model Hamiltonian analyses, we show the universality of this distinct symmetry reduction of the spin Berry curvature with respect to the Berry curvature: it can be accounted for based on the form of spin current operator and velocity operator in the Kubo formula. Finally, we discuss the consequence of the reduced symmetry of the spin Berry curvature on the relationship between the anomalous Hall and spin Hall conductivity. When band crossing points with opposite spin characters are present in the reciprocal space, which is often the case, the anomalous Hall conductivity does not simply scale with the spin Hall conductivity with the scaling factor being the spin polarization at the Fermi level.
