Room temperature strong coupling of WS_2 monolayer exciton transitions to metallic Fabry-Perot and plasmonic optical cavities is demonstrated. A Rabi splitting of 101 meV is observed for the Fabry-Perot cavity, more than double those reported to date in other 2D materials. The enhanced magnitude and visibility of WS_2 monolayer strong coupling is attributed to the larger absorption coefficient, the narrower linewidth of the A exciton transition, and greater spin-orbit coupling. For WS_2 coupled to plasmonic arrays, the Rabi splitting still reaches 60 meV despite the less favorable coupling conditions, and displays interesting photoluminescence features. The unambiguous signature of WS_2 monolayer strong coupling in easily fabricated metallic resonators at room temperature suggests many possibilities for combining light-matter hybridization with spin and valleytronics.

Devices made from graphene encapsulated in hexagonal boron-nitride exhibit pronounced negative bend resistance and an anomalous Hall effect, which are a direct consequence of room-temperature ballistic transport on a micrometer scale for a wide range of carrier concentrations. The encapsulation makes graphene practically insusceptible to the ambient atmosphere and, simultaneously, allows the use of boron nitride as an ultrathin top gate dielectric.
Spin transport in non-degenerate semiconductors is expected to pave a way to the creation of spin transistors, spin logic devices and reconfigurable logic circuits, because room temperature (RT) spin transport in Si has already been achieved. However, RT spin transport has been limited to degenerate Si, which makes it difficult to produce spin-based signals because a gate electric field cannot be used to manipulate such signals. Here, we report the experimental demonstration of spin transport in non-degenerate Si with a spin metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) structure. We successfully observed the modulation of the Hanle-type spin precession signals, which is a characteristic spin dynamics in non-degenerate semiconductor. We obtained long spin transport of more than 20 {mu}m and spin rotation, greater than 4{pi} at RT. We also observed gate-induced modulation of spin transport signals at RT. The modulation of spin diffusion length as a function of a gate voltage was successfully observed, which we attributed to the Elliott-Yafet spin relaxation mechanism. These achievements are expected to make avenues to create of practical Si-based spin MOSFETs.
We inject spin-polarized electrons from an Fe/MgO tunnel barrier contact into n-type Ge(001) substrates with electron densities 2e16 < n < 8e17 cm-3, and electrically detect the resulting spin accumulation using three-terminal Hanle measurements. We observe significant spin accumulation in the Ge up to room temperature. We observe precessional dephasing of the spin accumulation (the Hanle effect) in an applied magnetic field for both forward and reverse bias (spin extraction and injection), and determine spin lifetimes and corresponding diffusion lengths for temperatures of 225 K to 300 K. The room temperature spin lifetime increases from {tau}s = 50 ps to 123 ps with decreasing electron concentration, as expected from electron spin resonance work on bulk Ge. The measured spin resistance-area product is in good agreement with values predicted by theory for samples with carrier densities below the metal-insulator transition (MIT), but 100x larger for samples above the MIT. These data demonstrate that the spin accumulation measured occurs in the Ge, although dopant-derived interface or band states may enhance the measured spin voltage above the MIT. We estimate the polarization in the Ge to be on the order of 1%.
The organic spinterface describes the spin-polarized properties that develop, due to charge transfer, at the interface between a ferromagnetic metal (FM) and the molecules of an organic semiconductor. Yet, if the latter is also magnetic (e.g. molecular spin chains), the interfacial magnetic coupling can generate complexity within magnetotransport experiments. Also, assembling this interface may degrade the properties of its constituents (e.g. spin crossover or non-sublimable molecules). To circumvent these issues, one can separate the molecular and FM films using a less reactive nonmagnetic metal (NM). Spin-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on the prototypical system Co(001)//Cu/Mnphthalocyanine (MnPc) reveal that the Cu/MnPc spinterface atop ferromagnetic Co is highly spin-polarized at room temperature, up to Cu spacer thicknesses of at least 10 monolayers. Ab-initio theory describes a spin polarization of the topmost Cu layer after molecular hybridization that can be accompanied by magnetic hardening effects. This spinterfaces unexpected robustness paves the way for 1) integrating electronically fragile molecules within organic spinterfaces, and 2) manipulating molecular spin chains using the well-documented spin transfer torque properties of the FM/NM bilayer.
We demonstrate that magnetic skyrmions with a mean diameter around 60 nm can be stabilized at room temperature and zero external magnetic field in an exchange-biased Pt/Co/NiFe/IrMn multilayer stack. This is achieved through an advanced optimization of the multilayer stack composition in order to balance the different magnetic energies controlling the skyrmion size and stability. Magnetic imaging is performed both with magnetic force microscopy and scanning Nitrogen-Vacancy magnetometry, the latter providing unambiguous measurements at zero external magnetic field. In such samples, we show that exchange bias provides an immunity of the skyrmion spin texture to moderate external magnetic field, in the tens of mT range, which is an important feature for applications as memory devices. These results establish exchange-biased multilayer stacks as a promising platform towards the effective realization of memory and logic devices based on magnetic skyrmions.
