Nickel phosphorus trisulfide (NiPS3) is a layered quasi-two dimensional antiferromagnetic (AFM) semiconductor (TN=155 K). Nickel phosphorus trisulfide (NiPS3) belongs to the group of 2D layered transition metal phosphorus trichalcogenides (MPX3). Among them, NiPS3 has quite unique physical properties with capability of both p-type and n-type doping for device applications and the smallest bandgap energy (~1.6 eV).

The antiferromagnetic ordering in NiPS3 is persistent down to two-layer nano-structures and is substantially suppressed in the monolayer, unlike the case of Ising-type antiferromagnet FePS3 in which antiferromagnetic ordering maintains down to the monolayer limit. Antiferromagnetic van der Waals material NiPS3 offers a good model system for the XY Hamiltonian or XXZ-type, while FePS3 of anistropic Ising-type and MnPS3 of isotropic Heisenberg-type.
