Origin of two-dimensional MXene/ferromagnetic interface evaluated by angle-dependent hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy
Emergent ferromagnetism on the surface of two-dimensional (2D) MXene is investigated by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and angle-dependent hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (HAXPES). Focusing on the Cr2N as one of the 2D-MXenes, high quality bilayers of Cr2N/Co and Cr2N/Pt are prepared...

| description | Emergent ferromagnetism on the surface of two-dimensional (2D) MXene is investigated by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and angle-dependent hard X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (HAXPES). Focusing on the Cr2N as one of the 2D-MXenes, high quality bilayers of Cr2N/Co and Cr2N/Pt are prepared by magnetron sputtering technique. XMCD reveals the induced magnetic moment of Cr in the Cr2N/Co interface, while it is not observed in the Cr2N/Pt interface at room temperature. In order to distinguish the possible origins of either the interlayer magnetic exchange coupling or the charge transfer model as the source of ferromagnetism at the interface, the additional controlled Cr2N/Cu bilayer, whose work function of Cu is consistent with Co, is prepared. HAXPES spectra for the Cr 2p core level near the interface of Cr2N/Cu is consistent with that of Cr2N/Co, indicating that the induced magnetic moment of Cr observed by XMCD for the Cr2N/Co can be attributed to the model of interlayer magnetic exchange coupling, rather than the charge transfer model, leading to emergent ferromagnetism at the interface with 2D-MXene. |
