Experimental Investigation of RuCl3 Electronic and Magnetic Properties Toward Spintronic and Quantum Computing Applications

Since their discovery in 2017, two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials have emergedas a powerful platform for probing magnetism at reduced dimensionality, where thermal fluctuations challenge long-range order. Among them, RuCl3 is particularly compelling due to its unusual electronic and magnetic properties and its capacity to form heterostructures with potential ferroelectric effects, positioning it as a candidate for spintronic and quantum technologies. This project proposes a research internship to investigate how doping, external fields, and heterostructure engineering shape the properties of RuCl3, with the goal of identifying new pathways toward applications in quantum electronics and spintronics.
