Visualization and manipulation of magnetic domains in the quasi-two-dimensional material
Abstract
The magnetic domains in two-dimensional layered material Fe3GeTe2 are studied by using a variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscope with a magnetic tip after in situ cleaving of single crystals. A stripy domain structure is revealed in a zero-field-cooled sample below the ferromagnetic transition temperature of 205 K, which is replaced by separate double-walled domains and bubble domains when cooling the sample under a magnetic field of a ferromagnetic Ni tip. The Ni tip can further convert the double-walled domain to a bubble domain pattern as well as move the Neel-type chiral bubble in submicrometer distance. The temperature-dependent evolutions of both zero-field-cooled and field-cooled domain structures correlate well with the bulk magnetization from magnetometry measurements. Furthermore, atomic resolution scanning tunneling images and spectroscopy are acquired to understand the atomic and electronic structures of the material, which are further corroborated by first-principles calculations.
