The formation of local moments and the effect of charge carriers in dilute magnetic semiconductors can be well understood using local probe techniques like Mossbauer Spectroscopy. We report here on Mossbauer studies in the systems Fe 0.008 Ge 1jx D x (D = As, Bi), Fe 0.008 Ge 1jx In x , and Fe 0.008 Ge 1 j x Sn x . At room temperature magnetic interactions were observed for donor (D) impurities at the Fe site in the Fe 0.008 Ge system. No such magnetic ordering was observed for acceptor (In) or neutral (Sn) impurities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
