The transport properties of MnGaAs layers embedded with MnAs clusters have been investigated. It was demonstrated that the presence of MnAs clusters in GaMnAs matrix leads to appearance of photoconductivity and absorption current. These phenomena are related to carrier localization effects at the band bending in the vicinity of the clustermatrix interface.
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.
