Single crystalline samples of the van der Waals antiferromagnet CrPS4 were studied by measurements of specific heat and comprehensive anisotropic temperature- and magnetic field-dependent magnetization. In addition, measurements of the heat capacity and magnetization were performed under pressures of up to ~21 kbar and ~14 kbar respectively. At ambient pressure, two magnetic transitions are observed, second order from a paramagnetic to an antiferromagnetic state at TN ~ 37 K, and a first-order spin reorientation transition at T* ~ 34 K. Anisotropic H - T phase diagrams were constructed using the M(T,H) data. As pressure is increased, TN is weakly suppressed with dTN/dP ~ -0.1 K/kbar. T*, on the other hand, is suppressed quite rapidly, with dT*/dP ~ -2 K/kbar, extrapolating to a possible quantum phase transition at Pc ~ 15 kbar.

The hybridization of magnons (spin waves) with phonons, if sufficiently strong and comprising long wavelength excitations, may offer a new playground when manipulating the magnetically ordered systems with light. Applying a magnetic field to a quasi-
2D antiferromagnet, FePS3, we tune the magnon-gap excitation towards coincidence with the initially lower-in-energy phonon modes. Hybrid magnon-phonon modes, the magnon polarons are unveiled with demonstration of a pronounced avoided crossing between the otherwise bare magnon and phonon excitations. The magnon polarons in FePS3 are primary traced with Raman scattering experiments, but, as we show, they also couple directly to terahertz photons, what evokes their further explorations in the domain of antiferromagnetic optospintronics.
The magnetic excitations in CoPS$_3$, a two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) antiferromagnet with spin $S=3/2$ on a honeycomb lattice, has been measured using powder inelastic neutron scattering. Clear dispersive spin waves are observed with a large s
pin gap of ~13 meV. The magnon spectra were fitted using an $XXZ$-type $J_1-J_2-J_3$ Heisenberg Hamiltonian with a single-ion anisotropy assuming no magnetic exchange between the honeycomb layers. The best-fit parameters show ferromagnetic exchange $J_1=-2.08$ meV and $J_2=-0.26$ meV for the nearest and second-nearest neighbors and a sizeable antiferromagnetic exchange $J_3=4.21$ meV for the third-nearest neighbor with the strong easy-axis anisotropy $K=-2.06$ meV. The suitable fitting could only be achieved by the anisotropic $XXZ$-type Hamiltonian, in which the exchange interaction for the out-of-plane component is smaller than that for the in-plane one by a ratio $alpha=J_z/J_x=0.6$. Moreover, the absence of spin-orbit exciton around 30 meV indicates that Co$^{2+}$ ions in CoPS$_3$ have a $S=3/2$ state rather than a spin-orbital entangled $J_rm{eff}=1/2$ ground state. Our result directly shows that CoPS$_3$ is an experimental realization of the $XXZ$ model with a honeycomb lattice in 2D vdW magnets.
We report structural, physical properties and electronic structure of van der Waals (vdW) crystal VI3. Detailed analysis reveals that VI3 exhibits a structural transition from monoclinic C2/m to rhombohedral R-3 at Ts ~ 79 K, similar to CrX3 (X = Cl,
Br, I). Below Ts, a long-range ferromagnetic (FM) transition emerges at Tc ~ 50 K. The local moment of V in VI3 is close to the high-spin state V3+ ion (S = 1). Theoretical calculation suggests that VI3 may be a Mott insulator with the band gap of about 0.84 eV. In addition, VI3 has a relative small interlayer binding energy and can be exfoliated easily down to few layers experimentally. Therefore, VI3 is a candidate of two-dimensional FM semiconductor. It also provides a novel platform to explore 2D magnetism and vdW heterostructures in S = 1 system.
Spontaneous magnetic order is a routine instance in three-dimensional (3D) materials but for a long time, it remained elusive in the 2D world. Recently, the first examples of (stand-alone) 2D van der Waals (vdW) crystals with magnetic order, either a
ntiferromagnetic or ferromagnetic, have been reported. In this review, we describe the state of the art of the nascent field of magnetic 2D materials focusing on synthesis, engineering, and theory aspects. We also discuss challenges and some of the many different promising directions for future work.
CeTe3 is a unique platform to investigate the itinerant magnetism in a van der Waals (vdW) coupled metal. Despite chemical pressure being a promising route to boost quantum fluctuation in this system, a systematic study on the chemical pressure effec
t on Ce3+(4f1) states is absent. Here, we report on the successful growth of a series of Se doped single crystals of CeTe3. We found a fluctuation driven exotic magnetic rotation from the usual easy-axis ordering to an unusual hard-axis ordering. Unlike in localized magnetic systems, near-critical magnetism can increase itinerancy hand-in-hand with enhancing fluctuation of magnetism. Thus, seemingly unstable hard-axis ordering emerges through kinetic energy gain, with the self-consistent observation of enhanced magnetic fluctuation (disorder). As far as we recognize, this order-by-disorder process in fermionic system is observed for the first time within vdW materials. Our finding opens a unique experimental platform for direct visualization of the rich quasiparticle Fermi surface deformation associated with the Fermionic order-by-disorder process. Also, the search for emergent exotic phases by further tuning of quantum fluctuation is suggested as a promising future challenge.
