Ferromagnetism and half-metallicity in two-dimensional MO (M=Ga,In) monolayers induced by hole doping

Abstract: Identification of new two-dimensional (2D) materials with magnetic properties has received strong research attention in the development of advanced spinbased devices. By means of first-principles calculations, we investigate the stability, electronic properties and the hole-doping-induced magnetic properties of novel metal oxide (MO, M = Ga, In) monolayers. They are intrinsically non-magnetic stable semiconductors, with high energetic, vibrational and thermal stability. Hole doping can switch them from non-mag… Show more

“…Espin has the tendency of being relatively larger for the binary compounds with lighter anions in the same crystal structure. This is in agreement with values reported in the literature 26,27,29,30 for the 2D gallium or indium oxides and chalcogenides, with Espin following the order of GaO > GaS > GaSe, and InO>InS>InSe.…”

“…Similar to the bulk "d 0 " ferromagnetic materials, researches have predicted that the 2D III-VI (gallium oxides/chalcogenides and indium oxides/chalcogenides) 26,27,28,29,30 and IV-VI (tin oxides/chalcogenides and lead oxides) 31,32,33 semiconductors, and some other 2D materials such as InP3, etc. 34,35,36,37 would exhibit non-magnetic to ferromagnetic, and semiconducting to half-metallic transition upon hole doping.…”

“…This peculiar VB dispersion leads to a sharp high peak of the DOS near the VB edge. By shifting the Fermi level close to this peak, the Stoner criterion is fulfilled and the system becomes ferromagnetic. Hence, hole-doped CuAlO 2 could be a ferromagnetic material.…”

“…These properties are also related to crystal structure and stoichiometry, the local environment and symmetry around key magnetic atoms, structural disorder effects, quantum effects, and thermodynamic phase stability. [13][14][15] The complex interplay between all the intrinsic and microstructural parameters is responsible for the difficulty in predicting the magnetic properties of an alloy. [16][17][18] J. M. D. Coey has pointed an interesting fact about the development of magnetic materials in the 20th century, where most of the evolution in performance has been achieved.…”
