چکیده
Exploring two-dimensional (2D) magnetic semiconductors with room temperature ordering and electrically controllable spin polarization is a highly desirable but challenging task for nanospintronics. Here, through first principles calculations, we propose to realize such material by exfoliating the recently synthesized organometallic layered crystal Li$_{0.7}$[Cr(pyz)$_2$]Cl$_{0.7}$0.25$\cdot$(THF) (pyz = pyrazine, THF tetrahydrofuran) [Science 370, 587 (2020)]. The feasibility of exfoliation confirmed rather low energy 0.27 J/m$^2$, even smaller than that graphite. In exfoliated Cr(pyz)$_2$ monolayer, each pyrazine ring grabs one electron from Cr atom become radical anion, then strong $d$-$p$ direct exchange interaction emerges between cations radicals, resulting in ferrimagnetism Curie 342 K. Moreover, monolayer revealed be an intrinsic bipolar semiconductor where electrical doping can induce half-metallic conduction spin-polarization direction.

We present a quantitative theory for the effects of correlated doping on the ferromagnetism of diluted magnetic semiconductors. It predicts that room temperature ferromagnetism should be possible in homogeneous, but correlated, samples of MnxGa1−xAs. The theory predicts lower critical temperatures for MnxGa1−xN.

Based on a previously reported double-resonance mechanism, we present an analytical expression of the effective exchange interaction between impurity moments of transition-metal elements introduced in semiconductors. It is shown that the exchange interaction is enhanced by several orders of magnitude as compared with the ordinary RKKY interaction when the Fermi level and impurity states are clo...

متن کاملMagnetic Field Induced Spin Polarization of AlAs Two-dimensional Electrons
Two-dimensional (2D) electrons in an in-plane magnetic field become fully spin polarized above a field BP , which we can determine from the in-plane magnetoresistance. We perform such measurements in modulation-doped AlAs electron systems, and find that the field BP increases approximately linearly with 2D electron density. These results imply that the product |g∗|m∗, where g∗ is the effective ...
