Writing in Nature Nanotechnology, B. Huang et al. and S. Jiang et al. report the use of electrostatic gating to change not only the direction but the type of magnetic order in CrI3.
Operando Imaging of Spin Textures
The control of the electron spin by external means is a key issue for spintronic devices. We demonstrate for the first time operando electrostatic spin manipulation due to ferroelectric polarization reversal in ferroelectric Rashba semiconductors α-GeTe and multiferroic Ge1−xMnxTe.
