Surface Functionalization Enables Two-Dimensional Altermagnetism and Giant Tunnel Magnetoresistance

Zhou Cui, Ziye Zhu, Bowen Hao +7

Two-dimensional (2D) altermagnets (AMs) are highly desirable for ultrafast, stray-field-free spintronics because they combine compensated magnetic order and momentum-dependent spin…
