Magnon-plasmon coupling mediated by linear magnetoelectric effect in two-dimensional crystals with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Recently, one can observe a renewed interest in coupling of spin waves (magnons) and collective charge oscillations (plasmons), especially in two-dimensional systems. Several mechanisms of the magnon-plasmon hybridization in ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic systems have been proposed. Here, we consider another mechanism of magnon-plasmon hybridization, which is based on the linear magnetoelectric interaction. As a specific system we consider a monolayer of vanadium-based diselenide with perpendicular easy-axis magnetic anisotropy and Dzialoshinskii-Moriya interaction. The derived parameter of magnon-plasmon coupling is proportional to the magnetoelectric constant. Assuming for this constant an adequate experimental value, we calculate dispersion relations of the hybridized magnon-plasmon mods. Moreover, we also show that an external electric field normal to the layer (due to a gate voltage) can be used as a tool to tune the magnon modes and this way also hybridized magnon-plasmon coupling. A specific case of magnon-plasmon coupling based on tuning Dzialoshinskii-Moriya interaction is also considered.

Effect of Fe-doping on VS2 monolayer: A first-principles study

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), like VS2, display unique electronic, magnetic, and optical properties, making them promising for spintronic and optoelectronic applications. Using first-principles calculations based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT), we study the effect of Fe-doping on the electronic and magnetic properties of a VS2 monolayer. The pristine VS2 monolayer has ferromagnetic order and a small energy bandgap. This work aims to comprehensively study the substitution of selected Vanadium atoms in the VS2 monolayer by Iron (Fe) atoms, where the substitution concerns Vanadium atoms at various sites within the 2x2 and 3x3 supercells. This leads to significant modifications of the electronic band structure, magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE), and optical response (e.g., dielectric constant and absorption coefficient). The results provide valuable insights into engineering the VS2 monolayer properties for future applications, ranging from spintronics to cancer therapy in medical science.

Effect of strain on the electronic and magnetic properties of bilayer T-phase VS2: A first-principles study

Using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, we determined the electronic and magnetic properties of a T-phase VS$_2$ bilayer as a function of tensile and compressive strain. First, we determine the ground state structural parameters and then the band structure, magnetic anisotropy, exchange parameters, and Curie temperature. Variation of these parameters with the strain is carefully analyzed and described. The easy-plane anisotropy, which is rather small in the absence of strain, becomes remarkably enhanced by tensile strain and reduced almost to zero by compressive strain. We also show that the exchange parameters and the Curie temperature are remarkably reduced for the compressive strains below roughly -4$\%$.
