FeCl₂ Crystals

FeCl₂ Crystals

FeCl₂ is a layered transition metal halide with a van der Waals structure, known for its intrinsic magnetic and electronic properties. It exhibits antiferromagnetic ordering and is a material for spintronics, quantum materials research, and 2D material studies. Our FeCl₂ crystals are synthesized using high-temperature vapor transport techniques, and supplied for magnetic-material research.
