Abstract:
The magnetic phase diagram of the two-dimensional van der Waals magnet CrPS4and the exchange bias effect of CrPS4in contact with NiFe film have been investigated. Based on the magnetic measurements, we figure out the relatively low spin-flop field and spin-flip field for CrPS4, both of the spin transition phenomena are strongly affected by the temperature. The perpendicular exchange bias effect is studied in CrPS4single-crystal flake covered with 5 nm NiFe. Meanwhile, the variation of the cooling field has a great influence on the exchange bias field and coercivity, which is mainly attributed to the competition between the Zeeman energy and the exchange coupling at the interface as well as the formation of the multi-domain state.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
