| Summary:
Fundamental research on two-dimensional (2D) magnetic systems based on van
der Waals materials has been gaining traction rapidly since their recent
discovery. With the increase of recent knowledge, it has become clear that such
materials have also a strong potential for applications in devices that combine
magnetism with electronics, optics, and nanomechanics. Nonetheless, many
challenges still lay ahead. Several fundamental aspects of 2D magnetic
materials are still unknown or poorly understood, such as their
often-complicated electronic structure, optical properties, and magnetization
dynamics, and their magnon spectrum. To elucidate their properties and
facilitate integration in devices, advanced characterization techniques and
theoretical frameworks need to be developed or adapted. Moreover, developing
synthesis methods which increase critical temperatures and achieve large-scale,
high-quality homogeneous thin films is crucial before these materials can be
used for real-world applications. Therefore, the field of 2D magnetic materials
provides many challenges and opportunities for the discovery and exploration of
new phenomena, as well as the development of new applications. This Roadmap
presents the background, challenges, and potential research directions for
various relevant topics in the field on the fundamentals, synthesis,
characterization, and applications. We hope that this work can provide a strong
starting point for young researchers in the field and provide a general
overview of the key challenges for more experienced researchers.
