Topological semimetal materials have become a research hotspot due to their intrinsic strong spin-orbit coupling which leads to large charge-to-spin conversion efficiency and novel transport behaviors. In this work, we have observed a bilinear magnetoelectric resistance (BMER) of up to 0.1 nm2A-1Oe-1 in a singlelayer of sputtered semimetal Pt3Sn at room temperature. Different from previous observations, the value of BMER in sputtered Pt3Sn does not change out-of-plane due to the polycrystalline nature of Pt3Sn. The observation of BMER provides strong evidence of the existence of spin-momentum locking in the sputtered polycrystalline Pt3Sn. By adding an adjacent CoFeB magnetic layer, the BMER value of this bilayer system is doubled compared to the single Pt3Sn layer. This work broadens the material system in BMER study, which paves the way for the characterization of topological states and applications for spin memory and logic devices.
