Electrical switching in a magnetically intercalated transition metal dichalcogenide
by Nityan L. Nair
Nature Materials, Published online: 04 November 2019; doi:10.1038/s41563-019-0518-x
A remarkably low critical current is found to reorient the magnetic order in a magnetically intercalated transition metal dichalcogenide, suggesting this class of materials could form a basis for antiferromagnetic spintronics.

Two-dimensional van der Waals materials have rich and unique functional properties, but many are susceptible to corrosion under ambient conditions. Here we show that linear alkylamines n-CmH2m+1NH2, with m = 4 through 11, are highly effective in protecting the optoelectronic properties of these materials, such as black phosphorus (BP) and...

Author(s): Ashish Arora, Thorsten Deilmann, Till Reichenauer, Johannes Kern, Steffen Michaelis de Vasconcellos, Michael Rohlfing, and Rudolf Bratschitsch
We discover an excited bound three-particle state, the 2s trion, appearing energetically below the 2s exciton in monolayer WS2, using absorption spectroscopy and ab initio GW and Bethe-Salpeter equation calculations. The measured binding energy of the 2s trion (22 meV) is smaller compared to the 1s ...
