The optical properties of the layered magnet CrSBr are dominated by intralayer excitons: the antiferromagnetic order between the layers makes layer-to-layer charge hopping, and therefore interlayer excitons, spin-forbidden. An external magnetic field, however, continuously drives the magnetic order towards layer-to-layer ferromagnetic, which opens spin-allowed charge-transfer channels between the layers. Here we elaborate how their admixture changes the composition and nature of the excitons, leading to an extension over many layers, and causes a quadratic red-shift with respect to the external magnetic field. We address these effects by ab-initio $GW$-BSE calculations as a function of magnetic field and cast the data into a minimal four-band model to elucidate the interplay between the various interaction and coupling mechanisms. Our findings should be generally valid for antiferromagnetic layered magnets with and without external magnetic fields, and moreover for any couple of layers with different spin directions. Our insights help to systematically address excitons and predict their optical signatures in such systems.

Magnetic Order and Symmetry in the 2D Semiconductor CrSBr
最近发现的二维(2D)磁铁提供了独特的机会,为实验探索低维磁学4和磁邻近效应,并为新的磁电,磁光和自旋电子器件的发展。这些进展需要具有不同磁性结构的2D材料以及有效的磁对称性探针,这是理解层内磁序和层间磁耦合的关键。在这里,我们应用二次谐波产生(SHG),一种对对称性破缺非常敏感的技术,来探测一种新的二维磁性半导体CrSBr的磁性结构。我们发现,CrSBr单层铁磁有序低于146 K,一个巨大的磁偶极子SHG效应的中心对称的2D结构的发现,使观察。在多层膜中,铁磁单层膜是反铁磁耦合的,Néel温度随着层数的减少而显著增加。CrSBr的磁结构包括与矩形晶胞共面对准的自旋,与具有面外力矩的原型2D六边形磁体CrI 3和Cr2 Ge 2 Te 6显著不同。此外,我们的二次谐波分析表明,铁磁单层和反铁磁双层的序参量分别是磁偶极子和磁环矩。这些发现确立了CrSBr作为一种令人兴奋的2D磁性半导体和SHG作为探测2D磁对称性的有力工具,为探索磁序和激子/电子性质之间的耦合以及磁环矩在广泛的应用中打开了大门。
