摘　　要：Monolayer CrSBr is a recently discovered semiconducting spin-3/2 ferromagnet with a Curie temperature of around 146 K.In contrast to many other known 2D magnets,the orthorhombic lattice of CrSBr gives rise to spatial anisotropy of magnetic excitations within the 2D plane.Triaxial magnetic anisotropy and considerable magnetic dipolar interactions in CrSBr challenge its theoretical description in terms of spin Hamiltonians.Here,we employ a Green’s function formalism combined with first-principles calculations to study the magnetic properties of monolayer CrSBr in different regimes of surrounding dielectric screening.In the free-standing limit,the system is close to an easy-plane magnet,whose long-range ordering is partially suppressed.On the contrary,in the regime of large external screening,monolayer CrSBr behaves like an easy-axis ferromagnet with more stable magnetic ordering.Our findings suggest that anisotropic layered magnets form a potentially promising platform for studying the effects of substrate screening on magnetic ordering in 2D.
