The ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As has emerged as the most studied material for prototype applications in semiconductor spintronics. Because ferromagnetism in (Ga,Mn)As is hole-mediated, the nature of the hole states has direct and…

We have grown (InyGa1-y)1-xMnxAs ferromagnetic semiconductor layers with Mn composition x up to 0.13 on InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Near the lattice-matched composition, i.e., y ~ 0.53, the Curie temperature increases linearly…

We report Curie temperatures up to 150 K in annealed Ga1-xMnxAs epilayers grown with a relatively low As:Ga beam equivalent pressure ratio. A variety of measurements (magnetization, Hall effect, magnetic circular dichroism and Raman…

We investigate the relationship between the Curie temperature TC and the carrier density p in the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As. Carrier densities are extracted from analysis of the Hall resistance at low temperatures and high…

Ion implantation of Mn ions into hole-doped GaP has been used to induce ferromagnetic behavior above room temperature for optimized Mn concentrations near 3 at.%. The magnetism is suppressed when the Mn dose is increased or decreased away…

The Curie temperature TC is investigated as a function of the hole concentration p in thin films of ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As. The magnetic properties are probed by transport measurements and p is varied by the application of an…

We report on a comprehensive combined experimental and theoretical study of Curie temperature trends in (Ga,Mn)As ferromagnetic semiconductors. Broad agreement between theoretical expectations and measured data allows us to conclude that…

The effect of modulation doping by Be on the ferromagnetic properties of Ga(1-x)Mn(x)As is investigated in Ga(1-x)Mn(x)As/Ga(1-y)Al(y)As heterojunctions and quantum wells. Introducing Be acceptors into the Ga(1-y)Al(y)As barriers leads to…

For the prototype diluted ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As, there is a fundamental concern about the electronic states near the Fermi level, i.e., whether the Fermi level resides in a well-separated impurity band derived from Mn doping…

Considerable efforts have been devoted recently to synthesize diluted magnetic semiconductors having ferromagnetic properties at room temperature because of their technological impacts for spintronic devices. In 2001 successful growth of…

The effect of microscopic Mn cluster distribution on the Curie temperature (Tc) is studied using density-functional calculations. We find that the calculated Tc depends crucially on the microscopic cluster distribution, which can explain…

By studying the Hall effect in a series of low resistivity Ga1-xMnxAs samples, accurate values for the hole density p, Mn concentration x, and Curie temperature Tc are obtained over the range 0.015=<x=<0.08. The hole density corresponds to…

Electronic and magnetic properties of Ga$_{1-x}$Mn$_{x}$As, obtained from first-principles calculations employing the hybrid HSE06 functional, are presented for $x=6.25\%$ and $12.5\%$ under pressures ranging from 0 to 15 GPa. In agreement…

Comment on the recent Nature Materials article by M. Dobrowolska et al., arXiv:1203.1852. We present experimental data showing that the Curie temperature and conductivity of high quality (Ga,Mn)As samples are maximized at low compensation,…

We examine the Mn concentration dependence of the electronic and magnetic properties of optimally annealed Ga1-xMnxAs epilayers for 1.35% < x < 8.3%. The Curie temperature (Tc), conductivity, and exchange energy increase with Mn…

We study the Curie temperature and hole density of (Ga,Mn)As while systematically varying the As-antisite density. Hole compensation by As-antisites limits the Curie temperature and can completely quench long-range ferromagnetic order in…

The interplay between disorder and spin polarization in a GaMnAs thin layer results into spin-polarized impurity hole bands. A figure of merit is defined to label the hole state as being extended or localized. The calculation leads to a…
