Enhancement of Curie temperature ($T_\mathrm{C}$) of two-dimensional (2D) magnets is immensely desirable for room temperature spintronic applications. Fe$_{5}$GeTe$_{2}$ is an exceptional van der Waals metallic ferromagnet due to its…
As the bulk single-crystal MoN2/ReN2 with a layered structure was successfully synthesized in experiment, transition-metal dinitrides have attracted considerable attention in recent years. Here, we focus on rare-earth-metal (Rem) elements…
Pursuing two-dimensional (2D) intrinsic ferromagnetism with high Curie temperature and great mechanical flexibility has attracted great interest in flexible spintronics. In the present work, we carried out a density functional theory (DFT)…
Room-temperature ferromagnetic semiconductor is vital in nonvolatile digital circuits and it can provide an idea system where we can make use of both charge and spin of electrons. However, seeking room-temperature ferromagnetic…
The compound BaMn2As2 with the tetragonal ThCr2Si2 structure is a local-moment antiferromagnetic insulator with a Neel temperature TN = 625 K and a large ordered moment mu = 3.9 mu_B/Mn. We demonstrate that this compound can be driven…

Antiferromagnetic order, being a ground state of a number of exotic quantum materials, is of immense interest both from the fundamental physics perspective and for driving potential technological applications. For a complete understanding…
Electron spectrum of 2D and 3D antiferromagnetic metals is calculated with account of spin-fluctuation corrections within perturbation theory in the s-f exchange model. Effects of the interaction of conduction electrons with spin waves in…
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is deeply related to dimensionality of system. The Neel order going with spontaneous breaking of $U(1)$ symmetry is safely allowed at any temperature for three-dimensional systems but allowed only at zero…
We report a new member of topological insulator (TI) family i.e., Mn$_2$Sb$_2$Te$_5$, which belongs to MnSb$_2$Te$_4$ family and is a sister compound of Mn$_2$Bi$_2$Te$_5$. An antiferromagnetic layer of (MnTe)$_2$ has been inserted between…

The continuous scaling of semiconductor technology has pushed the footprint of logic devices below 50 nm. Currently, logic standard cells with one single fin are being investigated to increase the integration density, although such options…
The Co$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$ shows intrinsic ferromagnetic (FM) order, which origins from superexchange interaction between Co and Te atoms, with higher Curie temperature ($T_c$) of 161 K. Co$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$ monolayer (ML) is half-metal (HM), and…
We present a perspective on the status of antiferromagnetism in two-dimensional (2D) materials. Various types of spin-compensated orders are discussed and include non-collinear order, spin spirals and altermagnetism. Spin-orbit effects…
Electronic structure and magnetic properties for iron deficient TlFe$_{2-x}$Se$_2$ compounds are studied by first-principles calculations. We find that for the case of $x=0.5$ with a Fe-vacancy ordered orthorhombic superstructure, the…
Altermagnets (AM) are a recently discovered third class of collinear magnets, distinctly different from conventional ferromagnets (FM) and antiferromagnets (AF). AM have been actively researched in the last few years, but two aspects so far…
We revisit the question of whether a two-dimensional topological insulator may arise in a commensurate N\'eel antiferromagnet, where staggered magnetization breaks both the elementary translation and time reversal, but retains their product…
