Bimodal Spin Switch Emerging from Hybridized 2D MoS2/Ferromagnet Interfaces

This research collaboration between IMCN/MODL and Thales demonstrates a novel integration of 2D semiconductors with ferromagnets using pulsed laser deposition, revealing hybridization-driven spin manipulation. Vertical spin valves with MoS2 and Ni(111) show exotic bimodal spin signals. These theoretical and experimental results highlight the « 2D spinterfaces » key role in unlocking 2D materials’ potential for advanced spintronic applications and novel spin functionalities.
