Sensitivity of the MnTe valence band to the orientation of magnetic moments
Abstract
An effective model of the hexagonal (NiAs-structure) manganese telluride valence band in the vicinity of the A point of the Brillouin zone is derived. It is shown that whereas for the usual antiferromagnetic order (magnetic moments on the basal plane) band splitting at A is small, their out-of-plane rotation enhances the splitting dramatically (to about 0.5 eV). Here we propose extensions of recent experiments where such inversion of magnetocrystalline anisotropy has been observed in Li-doped MnTe to confirm this unusual sensitivity of a semiconductor band structure to magnetic order.
