Hard ferromagnetism in van der Waals Fe3GaTe2 nanoflake down to monolayer by Mingjie Wang, Bin Lei, Kejia Zhu, Yazhou Deng, Mingliang Tian, Ziji Xiang, Tao Wu, Xianhui Chen

“…By measuring the Hall resistance and magnetoresistance, we demonstrate that the Fe3GaTe2 monolayer exhibits 2D hard ferromagnetism with record-high Cure temperature (T c) of 240 K for the monolayer of known intrinsic ferromagnets. Both of square-shaped hysteresis loops with near-vertical jump in anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and the negative magnetoresistance (NMR) behavior with an applied out-of-plane magnetic field reveal robust perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) in Fe3GaTe2 nanoflakes down to the monolayer limit. …”
