Sumario:Exploration for the new members of air-stable 2D antiferromagnetic magnets to widen the magnetic families has drawn great attention due to its potential applications in spintronic devices. In addition to seeking the intrinsic antiferromagnets, externally introducing antiferromagnetic ordering in existing 2D materials, such as structural regulation and phase engineering, may be a promising way to modulate antiferromagnetism in the 2D limit. In this work, the in situ nitrogen doping growth of ultrathin 2D Cr(2)S(3) nanoflakes has been achieved. Antiferromagnetic ordering in 2D Cr(2)S(3) nanoflakes can be triggered by nitrogen doping induced new phase (space group P [Formula: see text] 1c). This work provides a new route to realize antiferromagnetism in atomically thin 2D magnets and greatly extend applications of 2D magnets in valleytronics and spintronics.
