## Description

- description: Information technology has a great demand for magnetoresistance (MR)
    sensors with high sensitivity and wide-temperature- range operation. It is well
    known that space charge inhomogeneity in graphene (Gr) leads to finite MR in its
    pristine form. There are considerable research efforts in improving the MR of
    graphene by increasing its degree of spatial disorder. Tremendous advancements
    have been made; however, the enhanced MR usually diminishes drastically as the
    temperature decreases and even negative MR occurs. Therefore, generating large
    MR insusceptible to temperature variation in graphene has yet to be realized.
    Here, by stacking a van der Waals ferromagnet Fe3GeTe2 (FGT) on top of graphene
    to form an FGT/Gr heterostructure, we demonstrate a positive MR of up to ~ 9400%
    under a magnetic field of 9 T at room temperature (RT), which is more than one
    order of magnitude enhancement of MR as compared to pure graphene and sets a record
    in modified graphene systems reported so far. More strikingly, the giant MR of
    the FGT/Gr heterostructure sustains over a wide temperature range from RT down
    to 4 K, with suppressed quantum oscillations. Both control experiments and DFT
    calculations show that the enhanced MR is originated from spin-dependent orbital
    coupling between FGT and graphene, which is temperature insensitive. Our results
    open a new route for realizing high-sensitivity and wide-temperature-range MR
    sensors.
