Highly Efficient Room‐Temperature Spin‐Orbit‐Torque Switching in a Van der Waals Heterostructure of Topological Insulator and Ferromagnet

Abstract All‐Van der Waals (vdW)‐material‐based heterostructures with atomically sharp interfaces offer a versatile platform for high‐performing spintronic functionalities at room temperature. One of the key components is vdW topological insulators (TIs), which can produce a strong spin‐orbit‐torque (SOT) through the spin‐momentum locking of their topological surface state (TSS). However, the relatively low conductance of the TSS introduces a current leakage problem through the bulk states of the TI or the adjacent ferromagnetic metal layers, reducing the interfacial charge‐to‐spin conversion efficiency ( q ICS ). Here, a vdW heterostructure is used consisting of atomically‐thin layers of a bulk‐insulating TI Sn‐doped Bi 1.1 Sb 0.9 Te 2 S 1 and a room‐temperature ferromagnet Fe 3 GaTe 2, to enhance the relative current ratio on the TSS up to ≈20%. The resulting q ICS reaches ≈1.65 nm −1 and the critical current density J c ≈0.9 × 10 6 Acm −2 at 300 K, surpassing the performance of TI‐based and heavy‐metal‐based SOT devices. These findings demonstrate that an all‐vdW heterostructure with thickness optimization offers a promising platform for efficient current‐controlled magnetization switching at room temperature.

Phase engineering of layered anode materials during ion-intercalation in Van der Waal heterostructures

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a class of 2D materials demonstrating promising properties, such as high capacities and cycling stabilities, making them strong candidates to replace graphitic anodes in lithium-ion batteries. However, certain TMDs, for instance, MoS 2 , undergo a phase transformation from 2H to 1T during intercalation that can affect the mobility of the intercalating ions, the anode voltage, and the reversible capacity. In contrast, select TMDs, for instance, NbS 2 and VS 2 , resist this type of phase transformation during Li-ion intercalation. This manuscript uses density functional theory simulations to investigate the phase transformation of TMD heterostructures during Li-, Na-, and K-ion intercalation. The simulations suggest that while stacking MoS 2 layers with NbS 2 layers is unable to limit this 2H → 1T transformation in MoS 2 during Li-ion intercalation, the interfaces effectively stabilize the 2H phase of MoS 2 during Na- and K-ion intercalation. However, stacking MoS 2 layers with VS 2 is able to suppress the 2H → 1T transformation of MoS 2 during the intercalation of Li, Na, and K-ions. The creation of TMD heterostructures by stacking MoS 2 with layers of non-transforming TMDs also renders theoretical capacities and electrical conductivities that are higher than that of bulk MoS 2 .

Spin–orbit coupling proximity effect in MoS 2 /Fe 3 GeTe 2 heterostructures

Layered two-dimensional (2D) magnet/semiconductor heterostructures combine spintronic and optoelectronic properties of constituent materials, leading to new magneto-optical and magnetoelectric phenomena such as spontaneous emission of helical light and enhanced Zeeman splitting in single photon emission. While prior focus was mostly on the magnetic proximity effect, where properties of 2D magnets are transferred to nonmagnetic 2D materials, the inverse effect of 2D semiconductors altering 2D magnets is much less understood. Here, we fabricated and studied van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures of 2D magnet Fe 3 GeTe 2 (FGT) and 2D semiconductor MoS 2 . With reflectance magnetic circular dichroism, we found that the coercive field of MoS 2 -covered FGT reduces compared with uncovered FGT, agreeing well with our first-principles calculations. With its strong spin–orbit coupling (SOC), MoS 2 effectively alters the crystal field of the adjacent FGT and its magnetic anisotropy. Furthermore, an unconventional two-step hysteresis loop emerges in MoS 2 /FGT as a result of the superposition of two regions of FGT: at the interface and away from the interface. Our experimental elucidation of the SOC proximity effect that MoS 2 exerts on FGT provides fundamental understanding for the rational development of 2D magnet/semiconductor heterostructures.

cm 2 -Scale Synthesis of MoTe 2 Thin Films with Large Grains and Layer Control

Owing to the small energy differences between its polymorphs, MoTe 2 can access a full spectrum of electronic states from the 2H semiconducting state to the 1T' semimetallic state and from the T d Weyl semimetallic state to the superconducting state in the 1T' and T d phase at low temperature. Thus, it is a model system for phase transformation studies as well as quantum phenomena such as the quantum spin Hall effect and topological superconductivity. Careful studies of MoTe 2 and its potential applications require large-area MoTe 2 thin films with high crystallinity and thickness control. Here, we present cm 2 -scale synthesis of 2H-MoTe 2 thin films with layer control and large grains that span several microns. Layer control is achieved by controlling the initial thickness of the precursor MoO x thin films, which are deposited on sapphire substrates by atomic layer deposition and subsequently tellurized. Despite the van der Waals epitaxy, the precursor–substrate interface is found to critically determine the uniformity in thickness and grain size of the resulting MoTe 2 films: MoTe 2 grown on sapphire show uniform films while MoTe 2 grown on amorphous SiO 2 substrates form islands. Furthermore, this synthesis strategy decouples the layer control from the variabilities of growth conditions for robust growth results and is applicable to growing other transition-metal dichalcogenides with layer control.

Bicrystallography-informed Frenkel–Kontorova model for interlayer dislocations in strained 2D heterostructures

In recent years, van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures and homostructures, which consist of stacks of two-dimensional (2D) materials, have risen to prominence due to their association with exotic quantum phenomena originating from correlated electronic states harbored by them. Atomistic scale relaxation effects play an extremely important role in the electronic scale quantum physics of these systems, providing means of manipulation of these materials and allowing them to be tailored for emergent technologies. We investigate such structural relaxation effects in this work using atomistic and mesoscale models, within the context of twisted bilayer graphene — a well-known heterostructure system that features moiré patterns arising from the lattices of the two graphene layers. For small twist angles, atomic relaxation effects in this system are associated with the natural emergence of interface dislocations or strain solitons, which result from the cyclic nature of the generalized stacking fault energy (GSFE), that measures the interface energy based on the relative movement of the two layers. Here, in this work, we first demonstrate using atomistic simulations that atomic reconstruction in bilayer graphene under a large twist also results from interface dislocations, although the Burgers vectors of such dislocations are considerably smaller than those observed in small-twist systems. To reveal the translational invariance of the heterointerface responsible for the formation of such dislocations, we derive the translational symmetry of the GSFE of a 2D heterostructure using the notions of coincident site lattices (CSLs) and displacement shift complete lattices (DSCLs). The workhorse for this exercise is a recently developed Smith normal form bicrystallography framework. Next, we construct a bicrystallography-informed and frame-invariant Frenkel–Kontorova model, which can predict the formation of strain solitons in arbitrary 2D heterostructures, and apply it to study a heterostrained, large-twist bilayer graphene system. Our mesoscale model is found to produce results consistent with atomistic simulations. We anticipate that the model will be invaluable in predicting structural relaxation and for providing insights into various heterostructure systems, especially in cases where the fundamental unit cell is large and therefore, atomistic simulations are computationally expensive.

Large-scale 2D heterostructures from hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks and graphene with distinct Dirac and flat bands

The current strategies for building 2D organic-inorganic heterojunctions involve mostly wet-chemistry processes or exfoliation and transfer, leading to interface contaminations, poor crystallizing, or limited size. Here we show a bottom-up procedure to fabricate 2D large-scale heterostructure with clean interface and highly-crystalline sheets. As a prototypical example, a well-ordered hydrogen-bonded organic framework is self-assembled on the highly-oriented-pyrolytic-graphite substrate. The organic framework adopts a honeycomb lattice with faulted/unfaulted halves in a unit cell, resemble to molecular “graphene”. Interestingly, the topmost layer of substrate is self-lifted by organic framework via strong interlayer coupling, to form effectively a floating organic framework/graphene heterostructure. The individual layer of heterostructure inherits its intrinsic property, exhibiting distinct Dirac bands of graphene and narrow bands of organic framework. Our results demonstrate a promising approach to fabricate 2D organic-inorganic heterostructure with large-scale uniformity and highly-crystalline via the self-lifting effect, which is generally applicable to most of van der Waals materials.

Directing Charge Carriers and Ferroelectric Domains at Lateral Interfaces in van der Waals Heterostructures

Emergent phenomena in traditional ferroelectrics are frequently observed at heterointerfaces. Accessing such functionalities in van der Waals ferroelectrics requires the formation of layered heterostructures, either vertically stacked (similar to oxide ferroelectrics) or laterally stitched (without equivalent in 3D-crystals). Here, we investigate lateral heterostructures of the ferroelectric van der Waals semiconductors SnSe and SnS. A two-step process produces ultrathin crystals comprising an SnSe core laterally joined to an SnS edge-band, as confirmed by Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging, and electron diffraction. TEM shows a moiré pattern across the SnSe core due to coverage by an ultrathin SnS layer. The ability of the lateral interface (IF) to direct excited carriers, probed by cathodoluminescence, shows electron transfer over 560 nm diffusion length from the SnS edge-band. Large, thin flakes supporting ferroelectricity allow investigating domains and domain wall interactions in uniform crystals and lateral heterostructures. Polarized optical microscopy of sub-20 nm flakes consistently shows ⟨110⟩ oriented stripe domains with mirror-twin domain walls. Heterostructures adopt two domain configurations, with domains either constrained to the SnSe core or propagating across the entire SnSe–SnS flakes. Furthermore, the combined results demonstrate multifunctional van der Waals heterostructures with high-quality IFs presenting extraordinary opportunities for manipulating carrier flows and ferroelectric domain patterns.

Facile fabrication of 2D material multilayers and vdW heterostructures with multimodal microscopy and AFM characterization

Reliable transfer processes that enable manipulation of two-dimensional (2D) materials, e.g., transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and MXenes, from one substrate to another has been a necessity for successful device fabrication. Here, with both mechanical exfoliation and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) widely used, a versatile, clean, deterministic, and yet simple transfer technique is highly needed. To address such need, we developed a transfer method that takes advantage of wettability contrast between interfaces without the use of sacrificial layers or chemical processes. More importantly, a setup was developed to carry out this transfer method with high sample selectivity and fine control of the position and orientation of transferred TMDC crystals, a feature required for fabrication of the devices based on vertical 2D heterostructures. Using both exfoliated and CVD grown materials and subsequent atomic force microscopy (AFM), photoluminescence (PL), confocal Raman and tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) characterization, we ascertained the quality of interfaces resulting from the transfer process while preserving excellent 2D material integrity. PL and TERS maps revealed nanometer-scale heterogeneities in the interfaces of fabricated heterostructures, which should enable further perfection of the transfer technique. TERS/TEPL information were employed to identify areas suitable for nanodevice fabrication, making the reported transfer and characterization methods ideal for making high quality assembly of 2D heterostructure more accessible, which should facilitate exploration of vertical 2D heterostructures for applications in electronics, batteries, solar cells, and twistronics.

Assembly of Arbitrary Designer Heterostructures with Atomically Clean Interfaces

Van der Waals heterostructures are an excellent platform for studying intriguing interface phenomena, such as moiré and proximity effects. Many of these phenomena occurring in such heterostructures' interfaces and surfaces have so far been hampered because of their high sensitivity to disorder and interface contamination. Here, it reports a dry polymer-based assembly technique to fabricate arbitrary designer van der Waals heterostructures with atomically clean surfaces. The key features of the suspended dry pick-up and flip-over assembly technique are: 1) the heterostructure surface never comes into contact with polymers, 2) the assemble is entirely solvent-free, 3) it is entirely performed in a glovebox, and 4) it only requires temperatures below 130 °C. By performing ambient atomic force microscopy and atomically-resolved scanning tunneling microscopy on example heterostructures, it demonstrates the fabrication of air-sensitive heterostructures with ultra-clean interfaces and surfaces. It envisions that, due to the avoidance of polymer melting, this technique is potentially compatible with heterostructure assembly under ultra-high vacuum conditions, which promises ultimate heterostructure quality.

Direct Observation of Magnetic Bubble Lattices and Magnetoelastic Effects in van der Waals Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6

Abstract Ferromagnetic van der Waals (vdW) materials are of large current interest for the fundamental study of low‐dimensional magnetism and for potential applications in multilayer heterostructures. Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6 (CGT) is particularly exciting because it is a ferromagnetic semiconductor with tunable electronic and magnetic properties. Controlling the magnetic domain structure of CGT is a requirement for understanding its novel interface physics and for tuning behavior for potential devices. Herein, cryo‐Lorentz transmission electron microscopy is performed in the temperature range of 12–50K to directly image the magnetic domain structures in CGT. A rich phase diagram of domain structures including stripe domains, magnetic bubble lattices of mixed‐chirality, and topologically‐protected lattices of homochiral magnetic bubbles is observed. The types and chiralities of the bubbles can be controlled by topographical changes in the CGT flakes. Additionally, it is observed that in‐plane strain and magnetoelastic coupling can align and organize both bubble lattices and stripe domains. This study provides insights into creating and controlling complex magnetic domain structures for integration into multilayer heterostructures and for future studies of 2D magnetism.

Adsorption and Growth of Organic Materials on Metal Surfaces

This work investigated extensively the role of van der Waals (vdWs) interactions, when incorporated self-consistently into density functional theory (DFT). The investigations follow two avenues: 1) screening of several vdWs schemes at the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), using adsorption of small and large organic molecules on a variety of metal surfaces; and 2) simulating the adsorption of 2D materials such as silicene and phosphorene on metal surfaces. This second avenue is done in connection were subject of experimental investigations. These investigations led us to the conclusion that, if the inclusion of the vdWs interactions improved the nature of the adsorption and brought some excellent agreements with the experimental observations of the adsorption geometries, there is still a lot to do when it comes to the changes to the electronic structure upon adsorption.

Unraveling the Mechanism of Interfacial Charge Transfer and Photoresponsivity of WS 2 Quantum Dots/MoS 2 (0D–2D) Heterostructure-Based Transistors

To assess the efficacy of a mixed-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure in modulating the optoelectronic responses of nanodevices, the charge transport properties of the transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based heterostructure comprising zero-dimensional (0D) WS 2 quantum dots (QDs) and two-dimensional (2D) MoS 2 flakes are critically analyzed. Herein, a facile strategy was materialized in developing an atomically thin phototransistor assembled from mechanically exfoliated MoS 2 and WS 2 QDs synthesized using a one-pot hydrothermal route. The amalgamated photodetectors exhibited a high responsivity of ∼8000 A/W at an incident power of 0.05 nW of white light, surpassing that of the pristine MoS 2 devices. Furthermore, the detectivity of pristine MoS 2 , which was on the order of 10 10 , increased to 10 12 Jones for the WS 2 QDs/MoS 2 heterostructure photodetector, outperforming other WS 2 -based materials. The quasiparticle band gap and density of states (DOS) are further analyzed to elucidate the photophysics of the WS 2 QD/MoS 2 hybrid assembly. The difference in the work function between MoS 2 and WS 2 QDs gives rise to an electric field across the 0D–2D interface, facilitating effective charge separation and migration and contributing to the enhancement of photoresponsivity. The analysis of optical responses using density functional theory (DFT) revealed stronger absorption and less reflection over a broader spectrum of wavelengths for the heterostructure compared to the pristine materials. The estimated optical conductivity aligns well with the experimentally predicted maximum photoresponsivity under visible light, which is attributed to the high absorbance of 2D MoS 2 . In conclusion, combining diverse spectroscopic and imaging techniques with quantum simulation provides insights that clarify the pertinence of 0D–2D TMDs in designing phototransistors.

Type-I and type-II interfaces in a MoSe 2 /WS 2 van der Waals heterostructure

We report experimental evidence that MoSe 2 and WS 2 allow the formation of type-I and type-II interfaces, according to the thickness of the former. Heterostructure samples are obtained by stacking a monolayer WS 2 flake on top of a MoSe 2 flake that contains regions of thickness from one to four layers. Photoluminescence spectroscopy and transient absorption measurements reveal a type-II interface in the regions of monolayer MoSe 2 in contact with monolayer WS 2 . In other regions of the heterostructure formed by multilayer MoSe 2 and monolayer WS 2 , features of type-I interface are observed, including the absence of charge transfer and dominance of intralayer excitons in MoSe 2 . Furthermore, the coexistence of type-I and type-II interfaces in a single heterostructure offers opportunities to design sophisticated two-dimensional materials with finely controlled photocarrier behaviors.

Ionic Control over Ferroelectricity in 2D Layered van der Waals Capacitors

The van der Waals layered material CuInP 2 S 6 features interesting functional behavior, including the existence of four uniaxial polarization states, polarization reversal against the electric field through Cu ion migration, a negative-capacitance regime, and reversible extraction of Cu ions. At the heart of these characteristics lies the high mobility of Cu ions, which also determines the spontaneous polarization. Therefore, Cu migration across the lattice results in unusual ferroelectric behavior. Here, we demonstrate how the interplay of polar and ionic properties provides a path to ionically controlled ferroelectric behavior, achieved by applying selected DC voltage pulses and subsequently probing ferroelectric switching during fast triangular voltage sweeps. Using current measurements and theoretical calculations, we observe that increasing DC pulse duration results in higher ionic currents, the buildup of an internal electric field that shifts polarization loops, and an increase in total switchable polarization by ~50% due to the existence of a high polarization phase which is stabilized by the internal electric field. Apart from tuning ferroelectric behavior by selected square pulses, hysteretic polarization switching can even be entirely deactivated and reactivated, resulting in three-state systems where polarization switching is either inhibited or can be performed in two different directions.

Emergence of electric-field-tunable interfacial ferromagnetism in 2D antiferromagnet heterostructures

Van der Waals (vdW) magnet heterostructures have emerged as new platforms to explore exotic magnetic orders and quantum phenomena. Here, we study heterostructures of layered antiferromagnets, CrI 3 and CrCl 3 , with perpendicular and in-plane magnetic anisotropy, respectively. Using magneto-optical Kerr effect microscopy, we demonstrate out-of-plane magnetic order in the CrCl 3 layer proximal to CrI 3 , with ferromagnetic interfacial coupling between the two. Such an interlayer exchange field leads to higher critical temperature than that of either CrI 3 or CrCl 3 alone. We further demonstrate significant electric-field control of the coercivity, attributed to the naturally broken structural inversion symmetry of the heterostructure allowing unprecedented direct coupling between electric field and interfacial magnetism. These findings illustrate the opportunity to explore exotic magnetic phases and engineer spintronic devices in vdW heterostructures.

Epitaxial 2D Magnet and Topological Insulator Heterostructures

I will discuss our latest advances on the epitaxial growth of 2D van der Waals (vdW) magnets and their integration with topological insulators (TI). This work is motivated by the realization of topological phases such as the quantum anomalous Hall effect and highly efficient spin-orbit torque produced by TIs. Our initial studies of MnSe2 growth on Bi2Se3 showed a tendency for the interdiffusion of Mn into the Bi2Se3. This ultimately led to the synthesis of MnBi2Se4 (MBS), a new magnetic TI. Interestingly, the vdW phase is not the thermodynamically stable phase and bulk crystals do not exist, so the epitaxial stabilization of MBS creates the opportunity to explore the magnetic and topological properties of this material. We find that MBS is a layered antiferromagnet, similar to MnBi2Te4, but a difference is that the magnetic moments lie in the plane of the film. Angle resolved photoemission experiments show the presence of a topological surface state with Dirac dispersion. For bilayers of 2D magnets and TIs, we have developed FGT films on Bi2Te3. We first optimized FGT by studying its growth on Ge(111) substrates, where we find that kinetic considerations play a major role. Using cross-sectional scanning transmission electron microscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy, we optimize the FGT films to have atomically smooth surfaces and abrupt interfaces with the Ge(111). Subsequently, we have developed the growth of FGT on Bi2Te3 for the integration of 2D magnets with Tis. Interestingly, we observe room temperature ferromagnetism in FGT/Bi2Te3 heterostructures by varying the growth conditions.

Remote Epitaxy of III-V Solar Cells via Hydride Vapor Phase Epitaxy

The promise of remote epitaxy, in which epitaxial registry of a film can still be maintained through two-dimensional layers, has emerged from an advanced understanding of the interactions between two dimensional materials and bulk semiconductors. A promising application of this technology is to facilitate substrate reuse in epitaxial III-V systems, which could significantly reduce material cost and improve commercial viability of this high-efficiency photovoltaic technology. In this process the weak van der Waal bonds between the 2D layer and the III-V substrate make separation of epitaxially-grown layers simple and leaves a smooth substrate that can be reused for cost reduction. Here we present a study of growth parameters of GaAs on AlGaAs through a low dimensional carbon interlayer via hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). We Investigate the effect of various GaAs nucleation conditions such as V/III ratio, temperature and growth rate on film roughness, crystallinity, and degree of epitaxial alignment. We demonstrate growth of single crystal GaAs layer on top of the low dimensional carbon that follow the crystal orientation of the substrate. Surface roughness measured via AFM found that lower V/III ratios result in smoother III-V films grown on the low dimensional carbon, with a lowest RMS of ~60 nm obtained at a V/III ratio of 5. Growth temperatures are optimized at 650 C, as temperatures below 550 C show non-crystalline growth and higher temperature samples display very rough surfaces. Additionally, we investigate HVPE growth on various forms of low-dimensional carbon including transferred graphene, CVD-grown graphene, and MOCVD-growth amorphous carbon and find the latter to be most well suited for III-V growth as this method results in cleaner interface and potential for direct, large-area coverage. We also identify techniques to mitigate surface degradation in carbon layers as a function of both exposure time and growth environment by analyzing surface changes via x-ray reflectivity. We show growth of heteroepitaxial III-V solar cells on carbon interlayers and preliminary cell results, which are currently limited to 4% efficiency under one sun.

Nanoscale Probing of Electrical Memory Effects in van der Waals Layered PdSe 2

Tunable electronic materials that can be switched between different impedance states are fundamental to the hardware elements for neuromorphic computing architectures. This “brain-like” computing paradigm uses highly paralleled and colocated data processing, leading to greatly improved energy efficiency and performance compared to traditional architectures in which data have to be frequently transferred between processor and memory. In this work, we use scanning microwave impedance microscopy for nanoscale electrical and electronic characterization of two-dimensional layered semiconductor PdSe 2 to probe neuromorphic properties. The local resolution of tens of nanometers reveals significant differences in electronic behavior between and within PdSe 2 nanosheets (NSs). In particular, we detected both n-type and p-type behaviors, although previous reports only point to ambipolar n-type dominating characteristics. Nanoscale capacitance–voltage curves and subsequent calculation of characteristic maps revealed a hysteretic behavior originating from the creation and erasure of Se vacancies as well as the switching of defect charge states. In addition, stacks consisting of two NSs show enhanced resistive and capacitive switching, which is attributed to trapped charge carriers at the interfaces between the stacked NSs. Stacking n- and p-type NSs results in a combined behavior that allows one to tune electrical characteristics. In conclusion, as local inhomogeneities of electrical and electronic behavior can have a significant impact on the overall device performance, the demonstrated nanoscale characterization and analysis will be applicable to a wide range of semiconducting materials.
