Magnetic 2D materials have gained increasing interest, due to their potential applications. But while many theoretical calculations predict magnetic order in various 2D materials [1], only few have been experimentally measured [2]. A very promising classes of materials are transition metal halides (TMHs), as many of them crystallise in Van der Waals layered structures, making them easily cleavable, while their partially filled d orbitals generate the perfect foundation for magnetic order, further increasing their attractiveness for future nanotechnologies. In this talk chemical, magnetic and structural properties of single-layer CoCl2 and CoBr2 on Au(111) by scanning tunelling microscopy (STM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS/XMCD) will be presented.
