Nickel Phosphorus Trisulfide (NiPS3) Crystal

Description

Description NiPS3 is a layered quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnetic (AFM) semiconductor (TN=155 K). Nickel phosphorus trisulfide (NiPS3) is a two-dimensional layered transition metal phosphorus trichalcogenide (MPX3). Among them, NiPS3 has very unique physical properties, with p-type and n-type doping capabilities suitable for device applications and the smallest bandgap energy (~1.6 eV).

Features And Benefits

Features And Benefits Monoclinic (space group: C2/m)
Transition metal phosphorus trichalcogenides (MPX3)
NiPS3 offers a good model system for the XY Hamiltonian or XXZ-type
NiPS3 is a layered quasi-two dimensional antiferromagnetic semiconductor (TN=155 K)
The antiferromagnetic ordering in NiPS3 is persistent down to bilayer and substantially suppressed in the monolayer

Application

Application Nickel phosphorus trisulfide (NiPS3) single crystals can be used to prepare monolayer and few-layer NiPS3 by mechanical or liquid exfoliation.
