A Hall coefficient investigation of ferromagnetic Ga1−xMnxAs layers on (100) GaAs substrates

Magnetic studies on ZnTe:Cr film grown on glass substrate by thermal evaporation method

“…So far various kinds of DMS systems were investigated to examine the possibility of practical spintronic applications [4,5]. The main advantage of DMS over ferromagnetic metal (FM) in a metallic spintronic device is the effective spin injection due to smaller lattice mismatch between a DMS and its semiconductor (SC) heterojunction partner and which is unlike the case of spin injection from a FM layer into SC.…”

Magnetic properties of Cr doped ZnTe alloy powder

“…The discovery of ferromagnetism in (In, Mn)As and (Ga, Mn)As prepared by MBE method promoted DMSs as fundamental materials for spintronics because of their compatibility with semiconductors used in present day electronics [5,6]. Likewise, ferromagnetism in (Zn,Cr)Te prepared by MBE technique has also stimulated the research due to the high solubility of Cr in II-VI group semiconductors [7]. In our recent study, we have investigated ferromagnetism and its origin in (Zn, Cr)Te thin films prepared by a simple thermal evaporator [8,9].…”
