We report experimental and theoretical studies on the magnetoelastic interactions in MnPS$_3$. Raman scattering response measured as a function of temperature shows a blue shift of the Raman active modes at 120.2 and 155.1 cm$^{-1}$, when the temperature is raised across the antiferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to estimate the effective exchange interactions and calculate the Raman active phonon modes. The calculations lead to the conclusion that the peculiar behavior with temperature of the two low energy phonon modes can be explained by the symmetry of their corresponding normal coordinates which involve the virtual modification of the super-exchange angles associated with the leading antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions.

The family of atomically thin magnets holds great promise for a number of prospective applications in magneto-optoelectronics, with CrI$_3$ arguably being its most prototypical member. However, the formation of defects in this system remains unexplor
ed to date. Here, we investigate native point defects in monolayer CrI$_3$ by means of first-principles calculations. We consider a large set of intrinsic impurities and address their atomic structure, thermodynamic stability, diffusion and aggregation tendencies as well as local magnetic moments. Under thermodynamic equilibrium, the most stable defects are found to be either Cr or I atomic vacancies along with their complexes, depending on the chemical potential conditions. These defects are predicted to be quite mobile at room temperature and to exhibit a strong tendency to agglomerate. In addition, our calculations indicate that the defect-induced deviation from the nominal stoichiometry largely impacts the local magnetic moments, thereby suggesting a marked interplay between magnetism and disorder in CrI$_3$. Overall, this work portrays a comprehensive picture of intrinsic point defects in monolayer CrI$_3$ from a theoretical perspective.
The engineered spin structures recently built and measured in scanning tunneling microscope experiments are calculated using density functional theory. By determining the precise local structure around the surface impurities, we find the Mn atoms can
form molecular structures with the binding surface, behaving like surface molecular magnets. The spin structures are confirmed to be antiferromagnetic, and the exchange couplings are calculated within 8% of the experimental values simply by collinear-spin GGA+U calculations. We can also explain why the exchange couplings significantly change with different impurity binding sites from the determined local structure. The bond polarity is studied by calculating the atomic charges with and without the Mn adatoms.
We present calculations for electronic and magnetic properties of surface states confined by a circular quantum corral built of magnetic adatoms (Fe) on a Cu(111) surface. We show the oscillations of charge and magnetization densities within the corr
al and the possibility of the appearance of spin--polarized states. In order to classify the peaks in the calculated density of states with orbital quantum numbers we analyzed the problem in terms of a simple quantum mechanical circular well model. This model is also used to estimate the behaviour of the magnetization and energy with respect to the radius of the circular corral. The calculations are performed fully relativistically using the embedding technique within the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker method.
Phase transitions and critical phenomena, which are dominated by fluctuations and correlations, are one of the fields replete with physical paradigms and unexpected discoveries. Especially for two-dimensional magnetism, the limitation of the Ginzburg
criterion leads to enhanced fluctuations breaking down the mean-field theory near a critical point. Here, by means of magnetic resonance, we investigate the behavior of critical fluctuations in the two-dimensional ferromagnetic insulators $rm CrXTe_3 (X=Si, Ge)$. After deriving the classical and quantum models of magnetic resonance, we deem the dramatic anisotropic shift of the measured $g$ factor to originate from fluctuations with anisotropic interactions. The deduction of the $g$ factor behind the fluctuations is consistent with the spin-only state (${gapprox}$ 2.050(10) for $rm CrSiTe_3$ and 2.039(10) for $rm CrGeTe_3$). Furthermore, the abnormal enhancement of $g$ shift, supplemented by specific heat and magnetometry measurements, suggests that $rm CrSiTe_3$ exhibits a more typical two-dimensional nature than $rm CrGeTe_3$ and may be closer to the quantum critical point.
Recently discovered class of 2D materials based on transition metal phosphorous trichalcogenides exhibit antiferromagnetic ground state, with potential applications in spintronics. Amongst them, FePS$ _{3} $ is a Mott insulator with a band gap of $si
m$ 1.5 eV. This study using Raman spectroscopy along with first-principles density functional theoretical analysis examines the stability of its structure and electronic properties under pressure. Raman spectroscopy reveals two phase transitions at 4.6 GPa and 12 GPa marked by the changes in pressure coefficients of the mode frequencies and the number of symmetry allowed modes. FePS$_3$ transforms from the ambient monoclinic C2/m phase with a band gap of 1.54 eV to another monoclinic C2/m (band gap of 0.1 eV) phase at 4.6 GPa, followed by another transition at 12 GPa to the metallic trigonal P-31m phase. Our work complements recently reported high pressure X-ray diffraction studies.
