Abstract
The recent discovery of spin-exciton and magnon-exciton coupling in a layered antiferromagnetic semiconductor, CrSBr, is both fundamentally intriguing and technologically significant. This discovery unveils a unique capability to optically access and manipulate spin information using excitons, opening doors to applications in quantum interconnects, quantum photonics, and opto-spintronics. Despite their remarkable potential, materials exhibiting spin-exciton and magnon-exciton coupling remain limited. To broaden the library of such materials, we explore key parameters for achieving and tuning spin-exciton and magnon-exciton couplings. We begin by examining the mechanisms of couplings in CrSBr and drawing comparisons with other recently identified two-dimensional magnetic semiconductors. Furthermore, we propose various promising scenarios for spin-exciton coupling, laying the groundwork for future research endeavors.
