▎ 摘 要
We report a study of electronic transport in van der Waals heterostructures composed of flakes of the antiferromagnetic Mott insulator alpha-RuCl3 placed on top of monolayer graphene Hall bars. While the zero-field transport shows a strong resemblance to that of isolated graphene, we find a consistently p-type Hall effect suggestive of multiband conduction, along with a nonmonotonic and gate-voltage-dependent excursion of the resistivity at low temperatures that is reminiscent of transport in the presence of a magnetic phase transition. We interpret these data as evidence for charge transfer from graphene to alpha-RuCl3 in an inhomogeneous device yielding both highly and lightly doped regions of graphene, while the latter shows a particular sensitivity to magnetism in the alpha-RuCl3. Thus proximity to graphene is a means to access magnetic properties of thin layers of magnetic insulators.
