 The past decade has been especially creative for Spintronics since the re-discovery of various two-dimensional 2D materials. Due to the unusual physical characteristics, 2D materials have provided new platforms to probe the spin interaction with other degrees of freedom for electrons, as well as to be used for novel Spintronics applications. This review briefly presents the most important recent and ongoing research for Spintronics and 2D materials. This article was authored by Wei Han.
