The quantum metric and Berry curvature are two fundamental and distinct factors that describe the geometry of quantum eigenstates. While the role of the Berry curvature in governing various condensed-matter states has been investigated extensively, the quantum metric, which was also predicted to induce topological phenomena of equal importance, has rarely been studied. Recently, a breakthrough has been made in observing the quantum-metric nonlinear transport in a van der Waals magnet, but the effect is limited at cryogenic temperature and is tuned by strong magnetic fields of several teslas. In our study, we demonstrate room-temperature manipulation of the quantum-metric structure of electronic states through its interplay with the interfacial spin texture in a topological chiral antiferromagnet/heavy metal Mn3Sn/Pt heterostructure, which is manifested in a time-reversal-odd second-order Hall effect (ScHE). We show the flexibility of controlling the quantum-metric structure with moderate magnetic fields and verify the quantum-metric origin of the observed ScHE by theoretical modeling. Our results open the possibility of building applicable nonlinear devices by harnessing the quantum-metric structure of electronic states.
