The evidence of topological origin for the recently observed anomalous Hall effect remains elusive. Here, the authors report that the resonance of the optical Hall conductivity resulted from topological electronic structure gives rise to the large intrinsic anomalous Hall effect in the magnetic Weyl semimetal Co3Sn2S2.
