| Popis: |
The exfoliation of layered magnetic materials generates atomically thin flakes characterized by an ultrahigh surface sensitivity, which makes their magnetic properties tunable via external stimuli, such as electrostatic gating and proximity effects. Another powerful approach to tailor magnetic materials is molecular functionalization, which leads to hybrid interface states with peculiar magnetic properties, called spinterfaces. However, spinterface effects have not yet been explored on layered magnetic materials. Here, we demonstrate the emergence of spinterface effects at the interface between flakes of the prototypical layered magnetic metal Fe3GeTe2 and thin films of paramagnetic Co-phthalocyanine. Magnetotransport measurements show that the molecular layer induces a magnetic exchange bias in Fe3GeTe2, indicating that the unpaired spins in Co-phthalocyanine develop antiferromagnetic ordering by proximity and pin the magnetization reversal of Fe3GeTe2. The effect is strongest for a Fe3GeTe2 thickness of 20 nm, for which the exchange bias field reaches -840 Oe and is measurable up to approximately 110 K. This value compares very favorably with previous exchange bias fields reported for Fe3GeTe2 in all-inorganic van der Waals heterostructures, demonstrating the potential of molecular functionalization to tailor the magnetism of van der Waals layered materials. |
