Large family of two-dimensional ferroelectric metals discovered via machine learning

Xing-Yu Ma et al.

Summary: The study discovered 60 stable ferroelectrics in a large family of 2D bimetal phosphates, including 16 ferroelectric metals and 44 ferroelectric semiconductors, with seven multiferroics. The ferroelectricity originates from opposite displacements of bimetal atoms, with coinage metal elements causing larger displacements and polarization. Van der Waals heterostructures based on ferroelectric metals may lead to changes in transport properties.

Spin defects in hBN as promising temperature, pressure and magnetic field quantum sensors

Andreas Gottscholl et al.

Summary: Spin defects in two-dimensional materials, such as negatively charged boron vacancies in hexagonal boron nitride, are demonstrated as sensors for magnetic fields, temperature, and pressure. These defects show high-spin triplet ground state and bright spin-dependent photoluminescence, making them potential candidates for quantum sensing applications. The frequency shift in optically detected magnetic resonance measurements is sensitive not only to static magnetic fields, but also to temperature and pressure changes, related to crystal lattice parameters. Spin-rich hexagonal boron nitride films may find applications as intrinsic sensors in heterostructures made of functionalized 2D materials.
