Controlling Electronic Properties of FeCl2 Monolayer under LDA+U Approach

“…It is also found that the critical (Curie) temperature is higher than that of other dihalides. Exploiting the magnetic properties, FeCl2 monolayer is regarded as a potential candidate for thermoelectric material [6].…”

Electric field-induced switching of anomalous Nernst conductivity in the 2D MoTe2/VSe2 heterostructure

“…Indeed, this outstanding ANC is almost one order of magnitude larger than that found in other 2D systems; 2D Fe 3 GeTe 2 (B0.3 A K À1 m À1 ) 45 and 2D FeCl 2 (B0.3 A K À1 m À1 ). 46 Furthermore, we also found electric fieldinduced switching of the ANC because the ANC became BÀ0.6 A K À1 m À1 under a positive electric field of E = 0.6 V Å À1 .…”

Thermoelectric conductivity of monolayer FeCl2 under LDA+U

“…For the study, a two-dimensional magnetic 1T-FeCl2 was constructed with the optimized lattice parameter of 3.48 Å as obtained by Syariati et al [8] with the vacuum distance in the z axis of 17.26 Å, as shown in Fig. Since the out of plane ferromagnetic state is more stable than the in plane one, we fixed the magnetic moment of Fe atom as 0 o in the z direction.…”

“…Syariati et al [8] shows that thermoelectric conductivity has a maximum value near the critical temperature of FeCl2. Based on their results, we extend the discussion by including Coulomb repulsion U in the framework of LDA+U to see the tendency of thermoelectric conductivity.…”

“…One of potential candidates of thermoelectric material is FeCl2 monolayer, which is a family member of metal dihalides [5][6][7]. From the previous studies [8], FeCl2 is more potential than other metal dihalides for the thermoelectric material since it has a high value of anomalous Nernst coefficient. Based on the band structure, FeCl2 is a half metallic material which is very useful for spintronic devices.…”
