We have performed inelastic neutron scattering measurements on optimally-doped Fe$_{0.98}$Te$_{0.5}$Se$_{0.5}$ and 10% Cu-doped Fe$_{0.88}$Cu$_{0.1}$Te$_{0.5}$Se$_{0.5}$ to investigate the substitution effects on the spin excitations in the…
Ferromagnetism in Mn-doped GaAs, the prototypical dilute magnetic semiconductor, has so far been attributed to hole mediated RKKY-type interactions. First-principles calculations reveal a strong direction dependence of the ferromagnetic…
Doping of semiconductors by impurity atoms enabled their widespread technological application in micro and opto-electronics. For colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals, an emerging family of materials where size, composition and shape-control…
Most conventional magnetic materials used in the electronic devices are ferrites, which are composed of micrometer-size grains. But ferrites have small saturation magnetization, therefore the performance at GHz frequencies is rather poor.…
Applicability of dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) in electronic devices relies upon the understanding and control of their magnetic anisotropy. This paper explores one of the ways in engineering magnetic anisotropy in epitaxial layers…
The parent compounds of iron-based superconductors are magnetically-ordered bad metals, with superconductivity appearing near a putative magnetic quantum critical point. The presence of both Hubbard repulsion and Hund's coupling leads to…
We develop a model for the effect of a magnetic field on quasiparticle interference in an iron-based superconductor. Recently, scanning tunneling experiments have been performed on Fe(Se,Te) to determine the relative sign of the…
In this chapter quantum many body theoretical methods have been used to study properties of GaAs - and InAs - based, small semiconductor compound quantum dots (QDs) containing manganese or vanadium atoms. Interest to such systems has grown…
In contrast to semiconductors doped with transition metal magnetic elements, which become ferromagnetic at temperatures below ~ 100K, semiconductors doped with non-magnetic ions (e.g. silicon doped with phosphorous) have not shown evidence…
It is well established that magnetic fields have a significant effect on transport in certain classes of electronic conductors. Less reported, however, are similar effects in solid ionic conductors. Despite the rarity of Hall mobility…
Insulating FeGa$_3$ poses peculiar puzzles beyond the occurrence of an electronic gap in an intermetallic compound. This Fe-based material has a very distinctive structural characteristic with the Fe atoms occurring in dimers. The…
In this paper we review the latest achievements of density functional theory in understanding the physics of diluted magnetic semiconductors. We focus on transition metal doped III-V semiconductors, which show spontaneous ferromagnetic…
Theoretically, the relative change of the Heisenberg-type nearest-neighbor coupling $J_1$ and next-nearest-neighbor coupling $J_2$ in the face-centered-cubic lattice can give rise to three main antiferromagnetic orderings of type-I,…
We study the optical conductivity in the III-V diluted magnetic semiconductor GaMnAs and compare our calculations to available experimental data. Our model study is able to reproduce both qualitatively and quantitatively the observed…
The polymer (PBDTTT-c) p-doped with the molecular dopant (Mo(tfd-COCF3)3) exhibits a decline in transport properties at high doping concentrations, which limits the performance attainable through organic semiconductor doping. Scanning…
Two-dimensional (2D) quartic dispersion materials are known to develop magnetization upon doping. Here we conduct a systematic investigation of magnetization in hole-doped quartic dispersion materials (GaS, InSe, TiO$_{2}$), focusing on the…
We report on the magnetic properties of GaN:Gd layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). A poor reproducibility with respect to the magnetic properties is found in these samples. Our results show strong indications that defects with a…
In magnetically-doped quantum dots changing the carrier occupancy, from open to closed shells, leads to qualitatively different forms of carrier-mediated magnetic ordering. While it is common to study such nanoscale magnets within a mean…
