Research progress of two-dimensional magnetic materials

Recent advances in two-dimensional intrinsic ferromagnetic materials Fe3X(X=Ge and Ga)Te2 and their heterostructures for spintronics

“…Unsurprisingly, 2D Fe 3 X(X=Ge and Ga)Te 2 has become a rising star in spintronic applications, and a small writing current has been achieved in Fe 3 X(X=Ge and Ga)Te 2 -based devices, which are energy-efficient. [35][36][37] Despite many reviews 20,[38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47] on 2D vdW magnets, little effort has been put into reviewing the recent progress on Fe 3 X(X=Ge and Ga)Te 2 and its vdW heterostructures (vdWHs). Herein, an overview of the recent advancements in novel findings related to Fe 3 X(X=Ge and Ga)Te 2 and their vdWHs is strategically summarized by introducing fabrication methods and fundamental physical properties, presenting promising applications associated with critical effects, such as the exchange bias (EB) effect, magnetoresistance (MR) effect, spin-orbit torque (SOT) effect, magnetic proximity effect and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, and revealing underlying mechanisms (Fig.…”

“…with the breaking of time-reversal symmetry of vdW magnetic materials also provide new opportunities for the realizations of quantum anomalous Hall effect [8,9] and spin valley manipulation [10,11]. These superior properties make the vdW magnets a promising class of materials for complex quantum systems and high-performance spintronic devices [12].…”

“…FMSs can be utilized for spin injection, detection, generation and manipulation by using state-of-the-art semiconductor technology. [20][21][22][23][24] In the realm of 2D materials, the exploration of 2D FMSs is particularly intriguing as it presents an incredibly unique opportunity to uncover new physical phenomena or develop innovative electronic functionality. [25][26][27][28][29][30] Early experimental realizations of 2D FMSs occurred in CrI 3 4 and Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6 5 sheets, which prompted significant experimental and theoretical research to identify other materials.…”
