Deskripsi
Van der Waals heterostructures allow for the integration of several materials with different properties in the one heterostructure. Here, Li et al combine a quantum spin hall insulator, WTe2, with an insulating ferromagnet, Cr2Ge2Te6, in a van der Waals heterostructure, with resulting proximity-induced magnetism in the WTe2 layer leading to an anomalous Hall and Nernst effect.
