Abstract We use a data-driven approach to study the magnetic and thermodynamic properties of van der Waals (vdW) layered materials. We investigate monolayers of the form $$\hbox {A}_2\hbox {B}_2\hbox {X}_6$$ A 2 B 2 X 6 , based on the known material $$\hbox {Cr}_2\hbox {Ge}_2\hbox {Te}_6$$ Cr 2 Ge 2 Te 6 , using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and machine learning methods to determine their magnetic properties, such as magnetic order and magnetic moment. We also examine formation energies and use them as a proxy for chemical stability. We show that machine learning tools, combined with DFT calculations, can provide a computationally efficient means to predict properties of such two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials. Our data analytics approach provides insights into the microscopic origins of magnetic ordering in these systems. For instance, we find that the X site strongly affects the magnetic coupling between neighboring A sites, which drives the magnetic ordering. Our approach opens new ways for rapid discovery of chemically stable vdW materials that exhibit magnetic behavior.

Using first-principle density functional calculations, we investigate electromechanical properties of two-dimensional MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se, Te) monolayers with the 1H and 1T structures as a function of charge doping for both electron and hole doping.

Density functional calculations have been performed on a series of {ReIV–MII} (M = Mn(1), Fe(2), Co(3), Ni(4), Cu(5)) complexes to compute the magnetic exchange interaction between the ReIV and MII ions, and understand the mechanism of magnetic coupling in this series.

We analyse the spinterface formed by a C60 molecular layer on a Fe(001) surface covered by a two-dimensional Cr4O5 layer. We consider different geometries, by combining the high symmetry adsorption sites of the surface with three possible orientations of the molecules in a fully relaxed Density Functional Theory calculation.We show that the local hybridization between the electronic states of the Cr4O5 layer and those of the organic molecules is able to modify the magnetic coupling of the Cr atoms. Both the intra-layer and the inter-layer magnetic interaction is indeed driven by O atoms of the two-dimensional oxide. We demonstrate that the C60 adsorption on the energetically most stable site turns the ferromagnetic intra-layer coupling into an antiferromagnetic one, and that antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic switching and spin patterning of the substrate are made possible by adsorption on other sites.

We demonstrate enhanced ferromagnetism in copper doped two-dimensional GaN monolayer ( GaN -ML). Our first principle calculation based on density functional theory predicted that nonmagnetic Cu -dopant with concentration of 6.25% to be ferromagnetic (FM) in 2D GaN layer which carries a magnetic moment of 2.0 μB per Cu atom and it is found to be long range magnetic coupling among the Cu -dopant. The Cu-dopant in 2D GaN -ML which can be explained in terms of p-d hybridization at Curie temperature and this dopant prefer the FM behavior in 2D GaN layer. Hence Cu doped 2D GaN layer shows strong magnetic properties so that it is a promising material in the field of spintronics.
