Magnetic Proximity Effect in a van der Waals Moiré Superlattice
Magnetic Proximity Effect in a van der Waals Moiré Superlattice
Understanding the magnetic proximity effect in a van der Waals heterostructure made of monolayers of semiconductor and ferromagnet is of great interest, considering its potential applications in spin control. This article presents a general method to study the problem, combining $a\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}b$ $i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}n\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}t\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}i\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}o$ and tight-binding calculations. The results reveal that a …
