Since the physical properties of non-collinear antiferromagnetic Mn3+xSn1-x are expected to significantly change with the Mn content x through the position of the Fermi level as well as other factors, the development of systematic knowledge on the role of x in Mn3+xSn1-x is timely and important. We systematically investigate structural, magnetic, and magnetotransport properties of epitaxial m-planeMn3+xSn1-x thin layers (with -0.03 ≤ x ≤ +0.23) deposited by magnetron sputtering. Notably, we construct an x-dependent magnetic phase diagram, revealing the stabilization of the anti-chiral commensurate phase (inverse triangular antiferromagnetic order) with large AHE down to liquid helium temperatures for x > 0.15. We also find that the Néel temperature depends on the Mn composition and correlates with the simultaneous changes in the lattice parameter. Our work contributes to understanding Mn3Sn thin films for novel device development.
