Material design of topological magnetism in 2D heterostructures — •Nihad AbuAwwad1,2, Manuel dos Santos Dias3, and Samir Lounis1,21Peter Grünberg Institut and Institute for Advanced Simulation, Forschungszentrum Jülich & JARA, 52425 Jülich, Germany — 2Faculty of Physics, University of Duisburg-Essen, 47053 Duisburg, Germany — 3Scientific Computing Department, STFC Daresbury Laboratory, Warrington WA4 4AD, United Kingdom

The discovery of two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals magnetic materials and their heterostructures provided an exciting platform for emerging phenomena with intriguing implications in information technology. CrTe2 is a particular example that hosts complex magnetism strongly intertwined with its crystal structures [1,2]. Here, based on a multiscale modelling approach that combines first-principles calculations and a Heisenberg model, we demonstrate that interfacing this 2D layer with various Te-based layers hosting heavy or light elements enables the control of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and magnetic anisotropy energy of the whole heterostructure, and thereby the emergence of new magnetic phases of matter, which are of topological nature such as skyrmions and merons.
