This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Materials Research, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), provides $168,312 to William Marsh Rice University to conduct collaborative research on understanding and manipulating magnetism and spin dynamics in two-dimensional intercalated van der Waals magnets. The key objectives of the project are to: 1) establish precisely controlled intercalation-magnetism relations and create a phase diagram; 2) tune and determine the influence of charge carriers, magnetic moments of intercalants, and atomic lattice spacing on magnetic properties; and 3) probe and manipulate magnetization and coherent spin dynamics using ultrafast demagnetization, ferromagnetic resonance, and terahertz phonon excitation. The research aims to generate systematic knowledge about magnetism and spin dynamics in this class of two-dimensional magnets, offering a new scientific paradigm to understand and engineer such materials. The project will also include outreach activities to foster STEM education in disadvantaged schools and inspire high school students to pursue quantum materials research.
