We investigate magnetic properties of In 1–xMn xP and Ga 1–xMn xN quantum wells in the mean-field approximation and show the difference between them. In the case of the In 1–xMn xP, the dependence of the Curie temperature ( Tc) on the hole density exhibits a step-like behavior, reflecting the effect of a two-dimensional Fermi (hole) gas, when the hole–hole exchange interaction is ignored. When we take into account the hole–hole exchange interaction, however, this behavior is broken by the appearance of peaks at the specific two-dimensional carrier densities, and Tc is substantially enhanced in this region. In the case of Ga 1–xMn xN, the step-like behavior is obscure, and it appears that Tc increases rather continuously with the increasing two-dimensional (2D) carrier density. This shows very weak step-like behavior compared to other III-Mn-V DMS quantum wells, because the hole effective mass of Ga 1–xMn xN is very large, and the large hole effective mass reduces the energy splitting due to the confinement effect. In a multi-heavy-valence-subband model, the Curie temperature of the In 1–xMn xP quantum well is about 68 K with 6.5×10 12 holes per cm 2 and the Mn mole fraction x = 0.05 and the exchange constant Jpd = 0.15 eV nm 3. The Curie temperature of the p-type Ga 1–xMn xN quantum well can be above room temperature, unless the spin-exchange interaction integral is abnormally small. 相似文献

We have studied the cyclotron resonance of electrons and holes in various types of InMnAs-based structures at ultrahigh magnetic fields. Our observations, in conjunction with an eight-band effective mass model including the s–d and p–d exchange interactions with Mn d-electrons, unambiguously suggest the existence of s-like and p-like delocalized carriers in all samples studied.

Mn8Ga5 alloy has certain significance in the study of materials for magnetic refrigeration applications due to its low coercivity. In this paper, the structure, magnetic properties and magnetocaloric effects (MCE) of Mn8?xCrxGa5 (x?=?1.3, 1.7) polycrystalline alloys were first studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique, scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersion (EDS) analysis and magnetization measurement. The two samples crystallized in a cubic (Zn8Cu5)-type structure with space group of I-43 m (No. 217). The lattice constants and crystallite sizes of Mn8?xCrxGa5 increase with the increase of Cr concentration. As the Cr content increases, the Curie temperature (Tc) of Mn8?xCrxGa5 (x?=?1.3, 1.7) is increased from 145 to 187 K. The saturation magnetic moments of Mn8?xCrxGa5 are 33.8 (x?=?1.3) and 36.6 (x?=?1.7) emu/g under the magnetic field of 16 kOe at 80 K, respectively. A second-order magnetic phase transition occurred in Mn8?xCrxGa5 alloy samples. The maximum magnetic entropy changes (|?SM|) of Mn8?xCrxGa5 are 0.9 (x?=?1.3) and 0.8 J·kg?1·K?1 (x?=?1.7), and the relative cooling power (RCP) values are 25 (x?=?1.3) and 17 J/kg (x?=?1.7) under 15 kOe magnetic field. 相似文献

We provide experimental evidence that the electrical and magnetic characteristics of Ga 1–x

Using combined channeling Rutherford backscattering and particle-induced X-ray emission, we show that optimal postgrowth annealing—which leads to an increase of the Curie temperature T

We investigated the transport and optical properties of diluted magnetic semiconductors theoretically by using a simple model where carriers move in a single band. In this model the carrier feels a nonmagnetic potential at a magnetic impurity site, and its spin interacts with the localized spins of the magnetic impurities through exchange interactions. The electronic states of a carrier were calculated by using the coherent potential approximation (CPA). The magnetism was investigated by minimizing the free-energy and the electrical conductivity was calculated by using the Kubo formula. We examined the results in several typical cases which correspond to (Ga 1–xMn x)As with x = 0.05. 相似文献

The magnetic contribution to the specific heat of bulk crystals of Zn 1–x
Mn
x
Te ( x = 0.03) heavily (up to 10 19 cm –3) p-type doped with P is studied over the temperature range 0.5–15 K and magnetic field range 0–3 T. The magnetic specific heat observed at zero magnetic field indicates that a substantial part of the magnetic ions has the degeneracy of their magnetic ground state lifted by d– d and p– d exchange interactions. The effect increases for doped and annealed samples with higher concentration of conducting holes. We have also carried out a theoretical analysis that takes into account the contributions due to small magnetic clusters, single magnetic ions in crystal field of distorted crystal lattice, and low energy excitations of the p– d exchange-coupled system of local moments and carriers. 相似文献

As epilayers grown by low temperature molecular beam epitaxy, and subsequently annealed under various conditions. We observe a large enhancement of ferromagnetism when the samples are annealed at an optimal temperature, typically about 280 °C. Such optimal annealing leads to an increase of Curie temperature, accompanied by an increase of both the conductivity and the saturation magnetization. A decrease of the coercive field and of magnetoresistivity is also observed for Ga 1–x

As, the MR at 1.6 K changes continuously from positive to strongly negative. This manifests the complex interplay between p–d exchange induced valence band splitting and the metal–insulator transition. Codoping with Te leads eventually to a dominant conduction band transport. It is characterized by a small negative contribution at low magnetic fields to the parabolic MR similar to that found in highly n-doped diamagnetic semiconductors. It shows that the Mn-induced conduction band splitting is much smaller than the valence band splitting, i.e., |N 0| |N 0|. 相似文献

Magnetic properties of a series of Ga 1–xMn xAs layers with different Mn and hole concentrations has been studied by measuring magneto-absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD). We first focus on comparing the MCD spectra of samples with unambiguous ferromagnetic or paramagnetic magnetization. We then investigate MCD in a sample with parameters between these two extremes, and interpret the observed behavior in terms of the coexistence of ferromagnetic domains and paramagnetic regions that may result, for example, from inhomogeneities in the sample caused, e.g., by compositional or doping fluctuations. 相似文献

The magnetic and structural properties of MBE-grown films of Zn 1–xCr xTe were investigated. The magnetization versus magnetic field ( M–H) measurement of Zn 1–xCr xTe ( x = 0.01–0.17) showed clear hysteresis loop at low temperatures. The ferromagnetic transition temperature ( TC) estimated from the Arrott-plot analysis increased almost linearly with the Cr composition ( x) up to 275 K at x = 0.17. However, in the magnetization versus temperature ( M–T) measurement, the irreversibility between the zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) processes was observed. This is typically observed in the magnetic random system such as spin-glass or superparamagnetic phase. In the high resolution transmission microscopy (HRTEM) observations, structural defects such as stacking faults and polycrystalline-like structure were observed at high Cr compositions, whereas any apparent precipitates of different phases were not seen in all the range of Cr compositions examined. The correlation of the observed magnetic randomness with the local structural defects was discussed. 相似文献

) 3Ga 5O 12 (DGGG) garnet single crystals were calculated using the Weiss molecular field theory and also measured using the vibrating sample magnetometer in the temperature range 4.2–40 K in the effective magnetic field from 0–7 T. The magnetic properties of DGGG single crystals are distributed between those of Dy 3Ga 5O 12 (DGG) and Gd 3Ga 5O 12 (GGG) single crystals, but are considerably closer to those of DGG. Based on the magnetic properties, the magnetic entropy change, S M, was evaluated in the temperature range below 15 K. DGGG single crystals are a prospective material for magnetic refrigeration below 15 K. 相似文献

Giant Zeeman effects and spin dynamics of excitons are studied in dense self-organized quantum dots (QDs) of CdSe and Cd 1–xMn xSe. Microphotoluminescence (PL) measurements for each individual dot reveal the typical dot diameter of 3.5 ± 0.2 nm and the density of 5000 m –2 in the CdSe QDs. The exciton lifetime is shorter in smaller dots with higher energies, indicating energy transfer and tunneling processes among the dots. Circular polarization of excitonic PL is observed at 0 T with an opposite sign to that of the excited light and with the rise time of 50 ps. The CdSe QDs coupled with a Zn 1–xMn xSe layer show the giant Zeeman shift of exciton, arising from overlapping of exciton wavefunctions in the dots with Mn ions. Spin polarization dynamics in the coupled QDs is also studied. 相似文献

Electron magnetic resonance (EMR), neutron powder diffraction (NPD) and ac susceptibility techniques were employed for studying
the crystallographic structure and magnetic ordering in CaMn 1−xRu xO 3 (x ≤ 0.40) manganite system. EMR measurements were done on polycrystalline samples at 120 ≤ T ≤ 500 K. High temperature EMR
spectra of pristine antiferromagnetic (AFM) CaMnO 3 show a singlet Lorentzian-like line, whose intensity diminishes , zeroing at Neel temperature T
N=120 K. Strong broadening of paramagnetic (PM) lines with increase of Ru-content (Δ H pp ∼ 1 T for x=0.10) was found. Upon cooling low-doped (x ≤ 0.06) samples remain AFM, whereas higher doped ones (0.10 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) clearly
show progressive appearance of ferromagnetic (FM) phases. Thus, EMR evidences that Ru-doping modifies both PM and AFM states
and creates an inhomogeneous phase separated FM and AFM ground states at x0.06. Complementary measurements of NPD and ac susceptibility corroborate the complex character of magnetic ordering, revealed
by EMR. The changes of the magnetic ordering in CaMn 1−xRu xO 3 supposed to be solely determined by doping of Mn-sites with Ru. 相似文献

S quantum wires with lateral dimensions of 3 and 5.5 nm, respectively, separated by 2-nm SiO 2 barriers were obtained. The wires were characterized using photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation (PLE) spectroscopy at liquid Helium temperatures. The PL of the wires is dominated by the 4T 1 6A 1 internal transition of the Mn 2+(3d 5) ions. The corresponding PLE spectra show higher internal Mn transitions as well as the band to band transition. The energies of the internal Mn transitions are typical for Mn 2+ on a cation site of (II,Mn)VI semiconductors. Because of the comparable bandgaps of the SiO 2 and the Zn 1–x
Mn xS as well as the small exciton Bohr radius in (Zn,Mn)S quantum confinement effects in the wires are less than about 150 meV. 相似文献
