Exploitable magnetic anisotropy of magnetic CrBr3 monolayer
DOI: 10.31857/S1234567820130108
Abstract
We investigated the influence of Li and F adsorption on the ferromagnetism and magnetic anisotropy energy of CrBr3 monolayer based on the first-principles calculations. It is observed that Li adsorption can dramatically enhance its ferromagnetism, and tune its easy magnetization axis to the in-plane direction from original out-of-plane. The monotonic enhancement of in-plane magnetism in CrBr3 as the coverage of Li increases is attributed to electrostatic doping induced by charge transfer between Li atoms and Br atoms. By contrast, the F adsorption reduces the out-of-plane magnetism in CrBr3 as the coverage of F increases, but keeps the original easy magnetization. Our results may open new promising applications of CrBr3-based materials in spintronic devices.
