We present a detailed study, within the mean-field approximation, of an impurity band model for III-V diluted magnetic semiconductors. Such a model should be relevant at low carrier densities, below and near the metal-insulator transition.…
We report results of a Monte Carlo study of doped, diluted magnetic semiconductors in the low carrier density (insulating) regime. We find that the system undergoes a transition from a paramagnet at high temperatures to a ferromagnet at low…
We present results of a numerical mean field treatment of interacting spins and carriers in doped diluted magnetic semiconductors, which takes into account the positional disorder present in these alloy systems. Disorder is found to enhance…
It is predicted that III-V diluted magnetic semiconductors can exhibit stripe-like modulations of magnetization and carrier concentration. This inhomogeneity results from the strong dependence of the magnetization on the carrier…
The presence of localized spins exerts a strong influence on quantum localization in doped semiconductors. At the same time carrier-mediated interactions between the localized spins are modified or even halted by carriers' localization. The…
We calculate magnetization in magnetically doped semiconductors assuming a local exchange model of carrier-mediated ferromagnetic mechanism and using a number of complementary theoretical approaches. In general, we find that the results of…
We present a theory of carrier-induced ferromagnetism in diluted magnetic semiconductors (III_{1-x} Mn_x V) which allows for arbitrary itinerant-carrier spin polarization and dynamic correlations. Both ingredients are essential in…
This review compiles results of experimental and theoretical studies on thin films and quantum structures of semiconductors with randomly distributed Mn ions, which exhibit spintronic functionalities associated with collective ferromagnetic…
We present a theoretical study of diluted magnetic semiconductors that includes spin-orbit coupling within a realistic host band structure and treats explicitly the effects of disorder due to randomly substituted Mn ions. While spin-orbit…
The magnetic properties of the diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) (Ga, Mn)As and (Ga, Mn)N are investigated by means of an effective Heisenberg model, whose exchange parameters are obtained from first-principle calculations. The…
We report the results of a Monte Carlo study of a model of (III,Mn)V diluted magnetic semiconductors which uses an impurity band description of carriers coupled to localized Mn spins and is applicable for carrier densities below and around…
Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors (DMS) doped with a small concentration of magnetic impurities inducing ferromagnetic DMSs have attracted a lot of attention in the few last years. In particular, DMS based on III-V and II-VI semiconductors…
Dynamical and transport properties of a simple single-band spin-fermion lattice model for (III,Mn)V diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) is here discussed using Monte Carlo simulations. This effort is a continuation of previous work (G.…
Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are interesting because of the interplay between the electronic and magnetic subsystems. We describe selected magnetic properties of IV-VI diluted magnetic semiconductors, looking at the similarities…
Influence of disorder on the ferromagnetic phase transition in diluted (III,Mn)V semiconductors is investigated analytically. The regime of small disorder is addressed, and the enhancement of the critical temperature by disorder is found…
We examine the feasibility of a simple description of Mn ions in III-V diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs) in terms of two species (components), motivated by the expectation that the Mn-hole exchange couplings are widely distributed,…
Role of localized magnetic moments in metal-insulator transitions lies at the heart of modern condensed matter physics, for example, the mechanism of high T$_{c}$ superconductivity, the nature of non-Fermi liquid physics near heavy fermion…
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…
We present a theoretical study of diluted magnetic semiconductors that treats the local sp-d exchange interaction J between the itinerant carriers and the Mn d electrons within a realistic band structure and goes beyond previous mean-field…
We discuss the influence of disorder on domain structure formation in ferromagnetic phase of diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) of p-type. Using analytical arguments we show the existence of critical ratio $\nu_{\rm {cr}}$ of…
