Non-volatile magnetic random-access memories (MRAMs), such as spin-transfer torque
MRAM and next-generation spin–orbit torque MRAM, are emerging as key to enabling low …

Two-dimensional (2D) materials are characterised by their strong intraplanar bonding but
weak interplanar interaction. Interfaces between neighboring 2D layers or between 2D …

The possibility of utilizing the rich spin-dependent properties of graphene has attracted
much attention in the pursuit of spintronics advances. The promise of high-speed and low …

The long-term (> 18 months) protection of Ni surfaces against oxidation under atmospheric
conditions is demonstrated by coverage with single-layer graphene, formed by chemical …

We report strongly enhanced perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) of Co films by
graphene coating from both first-principles and experiments. Our calculations show that …

The dependence of the wettability of graphene on the nature of the underlying substrate
remains only partially understood. Here, we systematically investigate the role of liquid …

We report on the fabrication and characterization of magnetic tunnel junctions consisting of a
single layer of graphene as the tunnel barrier, sandwiched between two metallic …

The ease by which graphene is affected through contact with other materials is one of its
unique features and defines an integral part of its potential for applications. Here, it will be …

Using a combination of photoemission and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), we
characterize the growth and the electronic as well as magnetic structure of cobalt layers …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials have displayed many remarkable physical
properties, including 2D superconductivity, magnetism, and layer-dependent bandgaps …
