Abstract: Mono-metal phosphorus trichalcogenides (MPX3) have attracted intensive interest due to their intriguing magnetic properties and potential applications. Generally, single-layer two-dimensional (2D) MPX3 are believed to be centrosymmetric. However, we discovered that unexpected spontaneous symmetry breaking… read more here.
