We systematically investigated the modulation effects of substrates on the ferromagnetism properties of Fe3GeTe2 experimentally and theoretically. The polar refractive magnetic circular dichroism results demonstrate that the ferromagnetism could be modulated significantly by selecting different substrates. We explain this phenomenon using the first-principles calculation, revealing that it was induced by the lattice distortion and charge redistribution between the interfaces. Our work is useful to understand the fundamental mechanism of tunable ferromagnetism and paves the way for exploring interface physics and practical spintronic applications of two-dimensional ferromagnetic van der Waals crystals.

We investigated the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) thermal response in space vacuum thermal environment. The FBGs were packaged with 6061-T6 aluminum. The liquid nitrogen immersion experiment results show that its wavelength shift standard deviation is 0.76 pm for 217 h. The combination effect of vacuum and cryogenic temperature was studied by thermal cycling process in space environment simulator. The FBG sensors show accuracy better than 2% full scale, and the hysteresis errors are below 1%. It proves that these metal packaged FBG sensors can survive and meet the requirement of space measurement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
