Title

The nuclear structure of CVT grown VI3

Abstract

Despite the strong two dimensionality of Van der Waals magnets, we have observed a strong effect on the bulk properties with stacking of the two dimensional layers. To understand the bulk properties of crystals, we therefore need to characterize the crystal structure. This proposal aims at understanding the magnetic and crystal structure of our VI3 crystals grown using chemical vapor transport (CVT). Diffraction measurements have found that the structure may not be the hexagonal structure reported in the literature in our single crystals. We request time on D9 to characterize the nuclear structure (at high temperatures) and also the magnetic structure (for temperatures below 50 K).
