TLDR
Examination of a series of transition metal dichalcogenides shows that the biaxial tensile strained NbS (2) and NbSe(2) structures can be magnetized with a ferromagnetic character due to the competitive effects of through-bond interaction and through-space interaction.Abstract:
Developing approaches to effectively induce and control the magnetic states is critical to the use of magnetic nanostructures in quantum information devices but is still challenging. Here we have d...read more
