AbstractTopological insulators are new kind of Dirac materials that possess bulk insulating and surface conducting behavior. They are basically known for their unique electronic properties at the surface. Here we present the magneto-transport properties of our high quality single crystalline Y(Lu)PtBi Heusler topological insulators, which belong to a group of noncentrosymmetric superconductor with Tc = 0:8 K. Both the compounds show semi-metallic behavior with low charge carrier of 6 x1018 cm^-3 for YPtBi and 8 x1019 cm^-3 for LuPtBi at 2 K. Magneto-conductivity measurements in the tilted field indicate that the charge carriers transport through quantum interference. This provide a direct evidence of weak anti-localization below 50 K, giving a strong signature of surface transport. Most importantly, these compounds show very high unsaturated linear magnetoresistance of approximately 2000% at 10 K in a magnetic field of 60 T.
