Electrically induced 2D half-metallic antiferromagnets and spin field effect transistors
Open accessAbstract
Significance: When conduction electrons in a solid are completely spin polarized, the single-spin transport results in great promise in spintronic (i.e., spin electronic) applications. Realizing high-efficiency spintronic devices based on 2D van der Waals (vdW) materials would tremendously impact nanoscale spintronics and the current information technologies. However, a minority of vdW materials are magnetic, among which antiferromagnets do not have net spin polarization whereas ferromagnets usually have limited imbalance between oppositely polarized electrons. Here, we show that antiferromagnetic vdW bilayers can be made half metallic, in which electrons of singular spin are metallic but those of the opposite spin are insulating, leading to 100% spin-polarized conduction electrons. Based on this finding, an interesting type of spin field effect transistor is proposed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
