Switchable magnetic bulk photovoltaic effect in the two-dimensional magnet CrI3

Two dimensional (2D) material with intriguing physical properties promises advanced electronic and spintronic technologies. Here the authors predict a magnetic photo-galvanic effect (MPGE) in bilayer 2D CrI3 due to the magnetism-induced asymmetry of the carrier velocity in the band-structure topolog...
