Structural and magnetic properties of MBE-grown GeMnN 2 thin films

Journal Article Liu, Y. ; Lazarov, V. K. ; Cheung, S. H. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Epitaxial GeMnN2 thin films are synthesized by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction measurements confirm that it is the orthorhombic variant, consistent with the predictions of first-principles calculations. The magnetic properties of the films are related to defects, with samples grown under Ge-rich conditions exhibiting a net magnetic moment above room temperature. These results are explained by first-principles calculations, indicating that the preferential substitution of one magnetic sublattice of GeMnN2 by impurities and/or intrinsic defects such as Ge antisites produces a net magnetic moment in an antiferromagnetic background, and also introduces spin-polarized carriers near the Fermimore » level.« less

X-ray magnetic spectroscopy of MBE-grown Mn-doped Bi{sub 2}Se{sub 3} thin films

Journal Article Collins-McIntyre, L. J. ; Watson, M. D. ; Zhang, S. L. ; ... - AIP Advances

We report the growth of Mn-doped Bi{sub 2}Se{sub 3} thin films by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), SQUID magnetometry and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). Epitaxial films were deposited on c-plane sapphire substrates by co-evaporation. The films exhibit a spiral growth mechanism typical of this material class, as revealed by AFM. The XRD measurements demonstrate a good crystalline structure which is retained upon doping up to ∼7.5 atomic-% Mn, determined by Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), and show no evidence of the formation of parasitic phases. However an increasing interstitial incorporation of Mnmore »« less

Structural, magnetic and optical properties of a dilute magnetic semiconductor based on Ce{sub 1−x}Co{sub x}O{sub 2} thin film grown on LaAlO{sub 3}

Journal Article Mahmoud, Waleed E., E-mail: w_e_mahmoud@yahoo.com ; Suez Canal University, Faculty of Science, Department of Physics, Ismailia ; Al-Ghamdi, A. A. ; ... - Materials Research Bulletin

Highlights: • Co doped CeO{sub 2} was grown on LaAlO{sub 3} (0 0 1) via a modified sol–gel spin-coating technique. • The concentration of the Co ions was varied from 1 to 15 at.%. • The incorporation of 5 at.% of Mn ions was found to provide formation of exceptionally magnetic moment. • This amount demonstrated a giant magnetic moment of 1.09 μ{sub B}/Co. • This amount reduced the optical band gap and enhanced the optical performance. - Abstract: The enhancement of the room temperature ferromagnetism and optical properties of the dilute magnetic metal oxides is a crucial clue tomore »« less
