Currently,magnetic storage devices are encountering the problem of achieving lightweight and high integration in mobile computing devices during the information age.As a result,there is a growing urgency for two-dimensional half-metallic materials with a high Curie temperature(TC).This study presents a theoretical investigation of the fundamental electro-magnetic properties of the monolayer hexagonal lattice ofMn2X3(X=S,Se,Te).Additionally,the potential application of Mn2X3 as magneto-resis-tive components is explored.All three of them fall into the category of ferromagnetic half-metals.In particular,the Monte Carlo simulations indi-cate that the Tc of Mn2S3 reachs 381 K,noticeably greater than room temperature.These findings present notable advantages for the application of Mn2S3 in spintronic devices.Hence,a prominent spin filtering effect is apparent when employing non-equilibrium Green's function simulations to examine the transport parameters.The resulting current magnitude is approximately 2 × 104 nA,while the peak gigantic magnetoresistance exhibits a substantial value of 8.36 × 1016%.It is noteworthy that the device demonstrates a substantial spin Seebeck effect when the tempera-ture differential between the electrodes is modified.In brief,Mn2X3 exhibits outstanding features as a high Tc half-metal,exhibiting exceptional capabilities in electrical and thermal drives spin transport.Therefore,it holds great potential for usage in spintronics applications.
