The recently discovered magnetism of two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals crystals has attracted a lot of attention. Among these materials is CrI, a magnetic semiconductor, exhibiting transitions between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic orderings under the influence of an applied magnetic field. Here, using first-principles methods based on density functional theory, we explore spin-dependent transport in tunnel junctions formed of face-centered cubic Cu(111) electrodes and a CrI tunnel barrier.
