Abstract

We propose an approach to enhance the antiferromagnetic spin correlation in the Cr₂O₃ film by forming a junction with the Fe₂O₃ layer. First-principles calculations and Monte-Carlo simulations were performed to evaluate the exchange coupling constant between the Cr and Fe spin and the spin correlation functions of the Fe₂O₃/Cr₂O₃ bilayer system in a finite temperature. We found that above the Néel temperature of Cr₂O₃, the length of the antiferromagnetic spin correlation in the bilayer system is increased by more than twice as that of the bulk system.
