Flat band induced room temperature ferromagnetism in two dimensional systems
arXiv:2210.08896 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.107.184441
Abstract
The remarkable and fascinating properties of two-dimensional materials have raised them to the rank of most promising candidates for technological applications. In particular, the possibility of long-range ferromagnetic order in 2D materials is generating a growing excitement. Here, we demonstrate that flat bands (FBs) may pave the way to room temperature ferromagnetism in 2D compounds. Indeed, the magnetic exchanges between localized spins are largely dominated by the FB-FB contribution. This contribution is ferromagnetic and scales linearly with the local coupling, thus leading to cross-over temperatures (ferromagnetic phase/ paramagnetic phase) higher by an order of magnitude than those currently reported in experiments. Cross-over temperatures as high as could be reached in micrometer-sized FB systems.
