The electronic properties of monolayer WTe2 on top of Fe3O4(111) are investigated by density functional theory. We find that the substrate termination of Fe3O4(111) can switch the conductivity of monolayer WTe2 from the p- to n-type. However, the stacking pattern can critically influence its electronic structure. For Fe(A)-terminated interfaces, stronger-bonding models show Fermi level pinning. Additionally, the time-reversal symmetry is broken by the proximity that leads to valley polarization. With particular stacking patterns, large valley splittings of 139, −76 and −72 meV are obtained for Fe(A)-, Fe(B)- and O-terminated models, respectively. Moreover, Fe(B)- and O-terminated ones have more applicable significance for valleytronics as no interference of the interface state appears at the valence band maximum. We demonstrate that proximity to a room-temperature ferromagnet is a convenient way to obtain valley polarization and adjust the conductivity of monolayer WTe2.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
