About
Magnetic systems with reduced dimensionality can exhibit unusual magnetic and spin transport behaviors due to the interaction of intrinsic energies and thermal fluctuations. These low-dimensional magnetic materials offer potential for next-generation spin electronic and caloritronic devices. Due to weak Van der Wall type interlayer coupling, twisted layers in 2D-materials can be easily cleaved by mechanical exfoliation, allowing for the fabrication of thin films and designing relevant hetero-structures for various applications. Total power consumption in spin transport-based devices is significantly reduced compared to electronic devices, improving overall performance. Exotic quantum material properties are also observed in these materials, potentially pave the way for quantum computing systems.
The study aims to study the novel magnetism and spin transport near the 2D limit in emerging 2D-materials, synthesizing air-stable chalcogenides and metal-organic networks. Further investigations will be conducted on 4d, 5d, and 4f elements or their clusters in these materials, modifying intrinsic competing energies and resulting in exotic properties. The flexible fabrication of thin films and hetero-structures in these materials will open new horizons for advanced technology.
