Efficient anomalous valley Hall effect switching in antiferrovalley MnSe driven by magnetoelectric coupling by Yaping Wang, Xinguang Xu, Weixiao Ji, Wei Sun, Shengshi Li, Yanlu Li, Xian Zhao

“…This unique phenomenon, characterized by the emergence/annihilation of fully spin-polarized valley polarization, arises from the combined effect of strong magnetoelectric coupling-induced changes in magnetic anisotropy and PT symmetry breaking. Our findings provide a novel approach for achieving nonvolatile control of the AVHE in antiferrovalley materials, opening up significant opportunities for valleytronic applications.…”
