The extraordinary properties of a heterostructure by stacking atom-thick van der Waals (vdW) magnets have been extensively studied. However, the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of heterostructures that are based on monolayer magnets remains to…
Changes in the spin configuration of atomically-thin, magnetic van-der-Waals multilayers can cause drastic modifications in their opto-electronic properties. Conversely, the opto-electronic response of these systems provides information…
This study presents systematic investigations into the growth and physical properties of EuAl$_3$Si single crystals, encompassing magnetic, transport, and thermodynamic analyses. EuAl$_3$Si undergoes a ferromagnetic transition at $T_C$ = 15…
CrI3, which belongs to a rare category of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic semiconductors, is of great interest for spintronic device applications. Unlike CrCl3 whose magnetism presents a 2D-Heisenberg behavior, CrI3 exhibits a larger van…
Polycrystalline CrTe1-xSex samples were prepared using the conventional solid-state reaction technique and characterized by x-rad diffraction, temperature- and field- dependent magnetization for possible use in magnetocaloric cooling.…
Intrinsic, two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic semiconductors are an important class of materials for spintronics applications. Cr$_2$X$_2$Te$_6$ (X = Si and Ge) semiconductors show 2D Ising-like ferromagnetism, which is preserved in…
CrCl3 is a layered insulator that undergoes a crystallographic phase transition below room temperature and orders antiferromagnetically at low temperature. Weak van der Waals bonding between the layers and ferromagnetic in-plane magnetic…
Two-dimensional magnets could potentially revolutionize information technology, but their potential application to cooling technology and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in a material down to the monolayer limit remain unexplored. Herein, we…
The temperature dependence of the upper critical field ($H_{c2}$) in RbCr$% _{3}$As$_{3}$ single crystals ($T_{c}\approx $ 7.3 K) has been determined by means of magnetoresistance measurements with temperature down to 0.35 K in static…
We studied magnetic states and phase transitions in the van der Waals antiferromagnet VBr3 by specific heat and magnetization measurements of single crystals in high magnetic fields and by ab initio density functional theory calculations…
The van der Waals class of materials offer an approach to two-dimensional magnetism as their spin fluctuations can be tuned upon exfoliation of layers. Moreover, it has recently been shown that spin-lattice coupling and long-range magnetic…
In the study of van der Waals-layered magnetic materials, the properties of CrCl$_3$ continue to attract attention. This compound is reported to undergo antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering below $\sim$14 K, with a ferromagneticlike region…
In this manuscript, we propose a method to prepare small flakes of DyCu2. On top of that we also report on the magnetocaloric effect and nature of magnetic transition of a strongly anisotropic DyCu2 in its low dimension. Magnetization…

The presence of a quantum critical point (QCP) can significantly affect the thermodynamic properties of a material at finite temperatures T. This is reflected, e.g., in the entropy landscape S(T, r) in the vicinity of a QCP, yielding…
We report a comprehensive high-field/high-frequency electron spin resonance (ESR) study on single crystals of the van der Waals magnet CrCl$_3$. This material, although being known for quite a while, has received recent significant…
CrI$_3$ is a promising candidate for the van der Waals bonded ferromagnetic devices since its ferromagnetism can be maintained upon exfoliating of bulk crystals down to single layer. In this work we studied critical properties of bulk…
The van der Waals ferromagnet Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$ (CGT) has a two-dimensional crystal structure where each layer is stacked through van der Waals force. We have investigated the nature of the ferromagnetism and the weak perpendicular…
The nature of the magnetic transition, critical scaling of magnetization, and magnetocaloric effect in Mn$_{1+x}$Fe$_{4-x}$Si$_{3}$ ($ x =$ 0 to 1) are studied in detail. Our measurements show no thermal hysteresis across the magnetic…
