Depth profile high - energy spectroscopic study of Mn - doped GaN prepared by thermal diffusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have performed an in-situ depth profile study of Mn-doped GaN prepared by a low temperature thermal diffusion method using photoemission and x-ray absorption spectroscopy. It was revealed from the core-level pho-toemission measurements that Mn ions are diffused into a deep (∼ 70Å) region of the GaN substrates and that the line shapes of Mn 3d partial density of states obtained by resonant photoemission measurements was close to that of Ga 1−x Mn x N thin films grown by molecular-beam epitaxy. From x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements at the Mn Ledge , it was revealed that the doped Mn ions were in the divalent Mn 2+ state and primarily paramagnetic. In mag-netization measurements, weak hysteresis was detected in samples prepared using p-type GaN substrates while samples using n-type GaN substrates showed only paramagnetism.

متن کاملFerromagnetic GaN--Cr Nanowires.
Using first-principles theory, we predict ferromagnetism in Cr-doped GaN nanowires irrespective of the sites that the Cr atoms occupy. This is in contrast to Mn-doped GaN nanowires in which the magnetic coupling between the Mn atoms is sensitive to the Mn--Mn and Mn--N distances, although the ground state of Mn-doped GaN nanowires is ferromagnetic. Each Cr atom carries a magnetic moment of abou...
