The angular dependence of the Hall resistivity approaches a signum function, persisting down to an extremely low field of 0. 03 T. By varying the carrier density of ZrTe5 over three orders of magnitude, we show that this singular behavior is due to the anomalous Hall effect generated by the ultra-dilute massive Dirac carriers in the quantum limit of Pauli paramagnetism when the Zeeman energy exceeds the Fermi energy.
