We systematically investigated the modulation effects of substrates on the ferromagnetism properties of Fe3GeTe2 experimentally and theoretically. The polar refractive magnetic circular dichroism results demonstrate that the ferromagnetism could be modulated significantly by selecting different substrates. We explain this phenomenon using the first-principles calculation, revealing that it was induced by the lattice distortion and charge redistribution between the interfaces. Our work is useful to understand the fundamental mechanism of tunable ferromagnetism and paves the way for exploring interface physics and practical spintronic applications of two-dimensional ferromagnetic van der Waals crystals.
