Mechanism of carrier-induced ferromagnetism in magnetic semiconductors
Taking into account both random impurity distribution and thermal fluctuations of localized spins, we have performed a model calculation for the carrier (hole) state in Ga1−xMnxAs by using the coherent potential approximation (CPA). The result reveals that a p-hole in the band tail of Ga1−xMnxAs is not like a free carrier but is rather virtually bounded to impurity sites. The carrier spin stron...
متن کاملSpin dynamics in the diluted ferromagnetic Kondo lattice model
The interplay of disorder and competing interactions is investigated in the carrier-induced ferromagnetic state of the Kondo lattice model within a numerical finite-size study in which disorder is treated exactly. Competition between impurity spin couplings, stability of the ferromagnetic state, and magnetic transition temperature are quantitatively investigated in terms of magnon properties fo...
متن کاملHole Spin Polarization in AlAs / Ga 1 � x � y Mn x Al y As Structures
During the last years spin-polarized transport became a matter of major interest [1, 2], giving rise to a eld usually called magnetoelectronics, or spintronics. Much e ort has been made in studying and producing the so-called spin-valve, where a spin-polarized current is generated. A promising system in that area is the recently grown structure of GaAs/AlAs with inclusions of Ga1 xMnxAs layers ...
متن کاملCompositional tuning of ferromagnetism in Ga 1 - xMnxP
We report the magnetic and transport properties of Ga1-xMnxP synthesized via ion implantation followed by pulsed laser melting over a range of x, namely 0.018 to 0.042. Like Ga1-xMnxAs, Ga1-xMnxP displays a monotonic increase of the ferromagnetic Curie temperature with x associated with the hole-mediated ferromagnetic phase while thermal annealing above 300 oC leads to a quenching of ferromagne...
متن کاملMn 3d electronic configurations in „Ga1−xMnx...As ferromagnetic semiconductors and their influence on magnetic ordering
We applied x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism XMCD at the Mn 2p-3d resonances to study the Mn 3d electronic configuration and the coupling of Mn 3d magnetic moments in various Ga1−xMnxAs films. The homogeneity of the Mn depth profile throughout the Ga1−xMnxAs film was tested by additional structure-sensitive x-ray resonant reflectivity measurements. In all inves...
