Description
The only magnetic grade CrGeTe3 vdW crystals in the commercial market. Our customers knows that slim amount of defects and magnetic impurities are sufficient to mask the observation of exotic magnetic behavior from 2D magnets. Our vdW magnets are created using state-of-the-art techniques to provide highest magnetic quality crystals through slow but high quality self-flux technique without using any contaminating transport agents.
CrGeTe3 is a layered ferromagnetic semiconductor which is close to 2D Heisenberg ferromagnet with Curie temperature (Tc) values at 65K in bulk. It exhibits layered dependent Curie temperature, coercive fields, and magnetic properties. Our CrGeTe3 crystals are grown by flux-zone or chemical vapor transport techniques with 99.9999% confirmed purity and defect free nature. It comes with guaranteed ferromagnetic response and highest purity as well as crystallinity. (Please note that this product is same as Cr2Ge2Te6). All these products are handled using non-magnetic tweezers and in non-magnetic environment with tools that are free of magnetic impurities to ensure intrinsic magnetic properties can be confidently measured and probed.
