Na3VAs2 monolayer: A two-dimensional intrinsic room-temperature ferromagnetic half-metal with large desired perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Jingjuan Su et al.

Summary: Recent experiments have shown that two-dimensional (2D) magnetism has attracted strong interest in advanced spintronics applications. However, the limited Curie temperature and magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) hinder their potential applications. Through density functional theory calculations, we have predicted a stable 2D monolayer of Na3VAs2, which exhibits intrinsic ferromagnetic (FM) order and a high MAE (570 μeV per V atom). Monte Carlo simulation reveals that this monolayer has a Curie temperature (TC) of up to 305 K based on anisotropic Heisenberg mode. In addition, the 2D Na3VAs2 monolayer exhibits ideal half-metallic properties, which are maintained under various strains, and possesses good dynamic, thermal, and mechanical stability. The exceptional properties of the Na3VAs2 monolayer make it a promising candidate for spintronic devices.

Strain-driven valley states and phase transitions in Janus VSiGeN4 monolayer

Pengyu Liu et al.

Summary: Manipulating the valley degree of freedom is crucial for the development of valleytronics. In this study, the intrinsic valley-polarized quantum anomalous Hall effect in a monolayer ferrovalley material, Janus VSiGeN4, is demonstrated using first-principles calculations. The material undergoes a phase transition from the valley-polarized quantum anomalous Hall state to the half-valley-metal state under a small tensile or compressive strain. The phase transition is attributed to the band inversion of the V d orbital at the K valleys. Furthermore, the phase transition results in the sign reversal of the Berry curvature and different polarized light absorption in different valley states. This work provides a promising material platform for practical applications and experimental exploration of the interplay among topology, spintronics, and valleytronics.

Magnon Straintronics in the 2D van der Waals Ferromagnet CrSBr from First-Principles br

Dorye L. Esteras et al.

Summary: The recent isolation of two-dimensional magnets has opened up exciting possibilities for spintronics and magnonics in miniaturization. Atomically thin materials have outstanding deformation capacity, which allows their properties to be controlled through strain engineering. In this study, the magnetic properties, magnon dispersion, and spin dynamics of the air-stable 2D magnetic semiconductor CrSBr under mechanical strain were investigated using first-principles calculations. The results provide a detailed analysis of the competing interactions that stabilize the long-range ferromagnetic order in the monolayer. It is shown that the magnon dynamics of CrSBr can be selectively modified along different crystallographic directions by applied strain, indicating the potential of this quasi-1D electronic system for magnon straintronics applications. Additionally, a 30% increase in TC, which allows spin waves to propagate at higher temperatures, is predicted to be driven by strain.

Triaxial magnetic anisotropy in the two-dimensional ferromagnetic semiconductor CrSBr

Ke Yang et al.

Summary: The study using first-principles calculations and Monte Carlo simulations investigates the electronic structure and magnetic properties of CrSBr in bulk and monolayer forms. Bulk CrSBr is found to be a magnetic semiconductor with a triaxial magnetic anisotropy, attributed to the joint effects of spin-orbit coupling and magnetic dipole-dipole interaction. The monolayer of CrSBr shows persistent intralayer ferromagnetic exchange and a stronger contribution of shape anisotropy to the magnetic anisotropy. Monte Carlo simulations predict a Curie temperature of 175 K for the CrSBr monolayer, with the potential for further increasing the temperature by applying a uniaxial tensile or compressive strain along specific axes.
