| Abstract Scope |
Two-dimensional (2D) layered magnets trigger significant research interests due to a set of their unusual low-dimensional properties and potential in technology applications. Two examples are the recently discovered ferromagnetic CrI3 and Cr2Ge2Te6. Among the various 2D layered magnets, 2D chiral magnets that possess chiral lattice structure and magnetic order are rare and unique. Exotic physical phenomena are bound to happen in chiral magnets where all of space inversion, mirror, and timer reversal symmetries are broken. In this talk, we will discuss the single crystal growth, magnetic and transport properties of the 2D chiral magnets M1/3TaS2 (M = Cr, Fe, Co and Ni). We observed exotic chiral magnetic orders and domain structures in M1/3TaS2 single crystals. The emergence of novel magnetism in 2D chiral magnets could open up new opportunities for functional device designs. |
