A two-dimensional Fe-doped SnS2 magnetic semiconductor

2D materials can be doped with magnetic atoms in order to boost their potential applications in spintronics. Here, the authors fabricate Fe-doped SnS2 monolayers and show that Fe0.021Sn0.979S2 exhibits ferromagnetic behaviour with perpendicular anisotropy at 2 K, and a Curie temperature of 31 K.
