Structural and magnetic properties of GaAs thin films with embedded MnAs nanoclusters were investigated as function of the annealing temperature and layers composition. The presence of two kinds of nanoclusters with different dimensions and…

A small fraction of phosphorus (up to 10 %) was incorporated in ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As epilayers grown on a GaAs substrate. P incorporation allows reducing the epitaxial strain or even change its sign, resulting in strong modifications of…

We present a computational study of the magnetic anisotropy energy for a given concentration of the Mn ions in the GaAs host, in the framework of the density functional theory. We focus on the influence of a different kind of strains on the…

It has been demonstrated that magnetocrystalline anisotropies in (Ga,Mn)As are sensitive to lattice strains as small as 10^-4 and that strain can be controlled by lattice parameter engineering during growth, through post growth lithography,…
