Magnetic skyrmions are swirl-like spin configurations that present topological properties, which have great potential as information carriers for future high-density and low-energy-consumption devices. The optimization of skyrmion-hosting materials that can be integrated with semiconductor-based circuits is the primary challenge for their industrialization. Two-dimensional van der Waals ferromagnets are emerging materials that have excellent carrier mobility and compatibility with integrated circuits, making them an ideal candidate for spintronic devices. Here, we report the realization of skyrmions at above room temperature in the 2D ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2. The thickness tunability of their skyrmion size and the formation of the skyrmion lattice are revealed. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the skyrmions can be moved by a low-density current at room temperature, together with an apparent skyrmion Hall effect, which is consistent with our quantitative micromagnetic simulation. Our work offers a promising 2D material platform for harnessing magnetic skyrmions in practical device applications. © 2024 American Chemical Society.
