Two-dimensional (2D) materials with robust ferromagnetism properties have high potentials for application in the field of spintronics. However, extensively pursued 2D sheets, including pure graphene, monolayer BN, and layered transition metal dichalcogenides, are either nonmagnetic or weakly magnetic. The elastic, electronic and magnetic properties of monolayer CrN are calculated using the plane wave pseudo potential method based on first-principles density function theory. Upon determining through calculation that the structure of the monolayer CrN nanosheet is stable, its layer modulus [Formula: see text] shows that its strain resistance is stronger than that of graphene. Through strain analysis, materials with a monolayer CrN type of structure can be obtained. It is determined that 10% of the change in equilibrium area is still applicable to the 2D EOS, showing that this structure is quite stable. The spin-polarized electronic band structure is also calculated under different plane symmetry strains. The plane strain can be used to effectively adjust the metallic and magnetic properties of the material. Analyses of the band structure and density of states reveal that this material is half-metallic, where the origin of the ferromagnetism is related to [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] exchange interactions between the Cr and N atoms. Monolayer CrN has semimetallic properties and strong ferromagnetic (FM) properties. The FM effect can enhance the stability of the material. The results show that monolayer CrN is a semimetallic material with good elastic properties and a strong FM property. This material is therefore expected to have good application rospects in the field of spin electronics.

PurposeThe purpose of this article is to investigate the magnetic properties and the hysteresis loops behavior of a ferrimagnetic cubic nanowire with mixed spins SA = 3/2 and SB = 2.Design/methodology/approachWe have used the Monte Carlo simulation to examine the influences of the exchange interaction JB, the crystal field ∆ and the temperature on the magnetic properties and hysteresis loops of the nanowire. More exactly, we have shown the temperature dependence of the sublattice magnetizations (mA and mB) and the total magnetization (M) for several values of the Hamiltonian parameters, as well as the corresponding phase diagrams. Finally, the effect of an external magnetic field is studied by plotting the hysteresis loops of the system for different values of exchange interaction, crystal field and temperature.FindingsThe obtained results show the existence of second-order phase transitions, as well as the compensation behavior. Moreover, according to the values of the Hamiltonian parameters, the system can exhibit one, two or three hysteresis loops.Originality/valueThe magnetic nanowires are of great interest in experimental works, but without theoretical explanations, the experimental results cannot be clarified in depth. For this, we contribute through this theoretical study to understand the nanowires, especially those with mixed spins (2, 3/2).
