2D van der Waals (vdW) magnets have recently emerged as a promising material system for spintronic device innovations due to their intriguing phenomena in the reduced dimension and simple integration of magnetic heterostructures without the restriction of lattice matching. However, it is still challenging to realize Curie temperature far above room temperature and controllable magnetic anisotropy for spintronics application in 2D vdW magnetic materials. In this work, the pressure‐tuned dome‐like ferromagnetic‐paramagnetic phase diagram in an iron‐based 2D layered ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2 is reported. Continuously tunable magnetic anisotropy from out‐of‐plane to in‐plane direction is achieved via the application of pressure. Such behavior is attributed to the competition between intralayer and interlayer exchange interactions and enhanced DOS near the Fermi level. The study presents the prominent properties of pressure‐engineered 2D ferromagnetic materials, which can be used in the next‐generation spintronic devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
