Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A van der Waals (vdW) junction based on two-dimensional materials presents a new method for constructing heterostructures with high quality interfaces. Since there are various layered materials, a number of combinations are applicable to built vdW heterostructures, such as metal, insulator, semiconductor, superconductor, and topological insulator. However, a vdW heterostructure including ferromagnetic layered materials is still missing. We fabricated Fe0.25TaS2/Fe0.25TaS2 and Fe0.25TaS2/ Cr1/3TaS2 junctions and observed magnetic resistance. We observed magneto-resistance signals witch can be assigned to the switching of magnetization between parallel and antiparallel configuration. The observed signal is attributed to a tunnel magneto-resistance effect. Our study demonstrates that vdW heterostructures can be used for spintoronics devices.
