Title

Inhomogeneous magnetic order in the archetypical 2D van der Waals magnet CrI3

Abstract

Layered van der Waals (vdW) materials have become the subject of intense interest in the condensed matter physics and especially the spintronics community. The reason is the rich diversity of optical, electronic and topological states which can arise in monolayer limits and which may be strongly dependent on layer thickness, doping and other tuning parameters. In a very recent study it was revealed that even the bulk of the archetypical vdW magnet CrI3 shows several magnetic phases with distinct transitions below the established and magnetic phase separation down to very low temperatures. Here we propose to map out the spatial correlation of the magnetically coexisting phases and look for signs of more complex magnetic ordering using SANS.
