Probing XMCD on all the magnetic phases of CrPS4 bulk crystals

CrPS₄ is a van der Waals (vdW) material with notable magnetic properties, including layer-dependent ferromagnetism, air stability, and a relatively high transition temperature. However, its bulk electronic and magnetic properties still require further investigation. During this day of in-house experiments, we will complete the XMCD characterization of the bulk material across all four of its magnetic phases (i.e., the low-field spin-flop transition and the high-field spin-flip ferromagnetic transition) in both normal incidence and grazing geometries.
