Abstract
This paper shows that two-dimensional Ising-type ferromagnetic semiconductors TcSiTe3, TcGeSe3 and TcGeTe3 with high Curie temperatures around 200~500 K possess large magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy, large anomalous Hall conductivity, and large magneto-optical Kerr angles due to their large spin-orbit couplings.
