Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures consisting of two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic and nonmagnetic materials hold great promises for tailoring their magnetic and transport properties. Here we report on the magnetic and transport properties of all-epitaxial Fe_5−xGeTe₂ (FGT, with x ≈ 0.2)/WSe₂ heterostructures tailored via the FGT thickness. Magnetic characterizations and anomalous Hall effect measurements with both out-of-plane and in-plane magnetic fields reveal an enhanced perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) in thinner FGT and a ferromagnetic order up to room temperature. The pronounced unconventional Hall effect (UHE) suggests the possible formation of skyrmions. The thickness-dependent asymmetric magnetoresistance reveals a unique magnetization switching process. Our results demonstrate the high potential of all-epitaxial FGT/WSe₂ heterostructures for the advancement of future 2D spintronic applications.
