Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The recent discovery of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials have attracted interest of the scientific community due to their potential applications in spintronics. In this work, we demonstrate by using density functional theory calculations that VIBr 2 is a magnetic semiconductor. To tune the electronic and magnetic properties, we consider the application of biaxial strain ( η ), electric field ( Ez ) and combination of both. We find the phase transition from semiconductor → half-metal → metal, with ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic ground states under different excitations. The maximum enhancement in Curie temperature is ∼ 1126% under application of external stimuli. The presence of various unique properties predicted by our detailed calculations give evidence that VIBr 2 can be a promising candidate for future spintronic applications.
