Substrate induced electronic phase transitions of CrI $$_{3}$$ 3 based van der Waals heterostructures

Abstract We perform first principle density functional theory calculations to predict the substrate induced electronic phase transitions of CrI $$_{3}$$ 3 based 2-D heterostructures. We adsorb graphene and MoS $$_{2}$$ 2 on novel 2-D ferromagnetic semiconductor—CrI $$_{3}$$ 3 and investigate the ele...
