Emergent ferromagnetism in the NiI$_2$-NbSe$_2$ van der Waals heterostructure

Multiferroicity arising from non-collinear spin textures and strong spin-orbit interactions offers a route to magnetoelectric functionality in the monolayer limit.

Multiferroicity arising from non-collinear spin textures and strong spin-orbit interactions offers a route to magnetoelectric functionality in the monolayer limit. Although theory predicts that the properties of monolayer multiferroics can be tuned by strain, gating, or…
