Abstract Ferromagnetism is the collective alignment of atomic spins that retain a net magnetic moment below the Curie temperature, even in the absence of external magnetic fields. Reducing this fundamental property into strictly two-dimensions was proposed in metal-organic coordination networks, but thus far has eluded experimental realization. In this work, we demonstrate that extended, cooperative ferromagnetism is feasible in an atomically thin two-dimensional metal-organic coordination network, despite only ≈ 5% of the monolayer being composed of Fe atoms. The resulting ferromagnetic state exhibits an out-of-plane easy-axis square-like hysteresis loop with large coercive fields over 2 Tesla, significant magnetic anisotropy, and persists up to T C ≈ 35 K. These properties are driven by exchange interactions mainly mediated by the molecular linkers. Our findings resolve a two decade search for ferromagnetism in two-dimensional metal-organic coordination networks. |
