Summary: | We studied the magnetic properties of WSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>/MoSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> powder. The coercivity field reaches 2600 Oe at 5 K, 4233 Oe at 100 K and 1300 Oe at 300 K. These are the highest values reported for two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides. This study is different from the widely reported vacancy and zigzag structure-induced ferromagnetism studies. Importantly, a Raman peak red shift was observed, and that supports the chemical bonding at the interface between WSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> and MoSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>. The large coercivity field originates from the chemical bonding-induced structural distortion at the interface between WSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> and MoSe<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mrow></mrow><mn>2</mn></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>.
