to be a constant independent of both the scattering strength and density of scatterers, even though
it depends on the type of scatterer. In this work, we reveal that the side-jump contribution due
to electron-phonon scattering, the primary source of scattering in clean samples, can in fact acquire
substantial temperature dependence when the temperature drops below the high-temperature
classical regime of equipartition law. We demonstrate this phenomenon in an analytic model, supplemented
by a first-principles calculation for pure Pt. Experimentally accessible high-purity Pt is
proposed to be suitable for observing the predicted prominent variation of the spin Hall conductivity
below 80 K.
