Air‐Stable 2D Intrinsic Ferromagnetic Ta3FeS6 with Four Months Durability

2020 
2D ferromagnetic materials provide an important platform for the fundamental magnetic research at atomic-layer thickness which has great prospects for next-generation spintronic devices. However, the currently discovered 2D ferromagnetic materials (such as, CrI3, Cr2Ge2Te6, and Fe3GeTe2) suffer from poor air stability, which hinders their practical application. Herein, intrinsic long-range ferromagnetic order in 2D Ta3FeS6 is reported, which exhibits ultrahigh stability under the atmospheric environment. The intrinsic ferromagnetism of few-layer Ta3FeS6 is revealed by polar magneto-optical Kerr effect measurement, which exhibits giant MOKE response and has Curie temperature of ≈80 K. More importantly, few-layer Ta3FeS6 nanosheet exhibits excellent air stability and its ferromagnetism remains unchanged after 4 months of aging under the atmosphere. This work enriches the family of 2D ferromagnetic materials, which will facilitate the research progress of spintronics.
