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…
We investigate the spin-polarized transport of GaMnAs nanolayers in which a ferromagnetic order exists below a certain transition temperature. Our calculation for the self-averaged resistivity takes into account the existence of an impurity…
We present the spin and orbitally resolved local density of states (LDOS) for a single Mn impurity and for two nearby Mn impurities in GaAs. The GaAs host is described by a sp^3 tight-binding Hamiltonian, and the Mn impurity is described by…
We report on simple experiment on temperature-dependent Hall effect measurements in GaMnAs single crystalline samples with Mn composition estimated at 0.05-0.3 at.% which is slightly below the onset of ferromagnetism. Impurity band…
We employ the dynamical mean field approximation to perform a systematic study of magnetism in Ga_{1-x}Mn_xAs. Our model incorporates the effects of the strong spin-orbit coupling on the J=3/2 GaAs valence bands and of the exchange…
We study density of states and conductivity of the doped double-exchange system, treating interaction of charge carriers both with the localized spins and with the impurities in the coherent potential approximation. It is shown that under…
We report measurements and calculations of the spin-subband depopulation, induced by a parallel magnetic field, of dilute GaAs two-dimensional (2D) hole systems. The results reveal that the shape of the confining potential dramatically…
We analyze microscopically the valence and impurity band models of ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As. We find that the tight-binding Anderson approach with conventional parameterization and the full potential LDA+U calculations give a very similar…
We have performed ab initio calculations within the density-functional theory for Ga_{1-x}Mn_xAs diluted semiconductors. Total energy results unambiguously show that a quasi-localized down-spin hole, with strong p-like character, surrounds…
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…
We present results of tight-binding spin-dynamics simulations of individual and pairs of substitutional Mn impurities in GaAs. Our approach is based on the mixed quantum-classical scheme for spin dynamics, with coupled equations of motions…
Experiments on (Ga,Mn)As in the low-doping insulating phase have shown evidence for the presence of an impurity band at 110 meV above the valence band. The motivation of this paper is to investigate the role of the impurity band in…
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…
A self-consistent calculation of the density of states and the spectral density function is performed in a two-dimensional spin-polarized hole system based on a multiple-scattering approximation. Using parameters corresponding to GaMnAs…
We discuss the character of states near the Fermi level in Mn doped GaAs, as revealed by a survey of dc transport and optical studies over a wide range of Mn concentrations. A thermally activated valence band contribution to dc transport, a…
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 present a computational study of individual and pairs of substitutional Mn impurities on the (110) surface of GaAs samples based on density functional theory. We focus on the anisotropy properties of these magnetic centers and their…
Recent experiments [1] suggest that the ferromagnetism (FM) in GaAs: Mn is determined by the impurity band rather than holes in the valence band. We discuss here the physical mechanism of FM mediated by the carriers in impurity band, where…
The magneto-optical properties of the ferromagnetic semiconductor Ga$_{1-x}$Mn$_{x}$As are studied within the dynamical mean-field approximation (DMFA). A material-specific multiband $sp^{3}$ tight-binding Hamiltonian is employed for the…
After two decades from the discovery of ferromagnetism in Mn-doped GaAs, its origin is still debated, and many doubts are related to the electronic structure. Here we report an experimental and theoretical study of the valence electron…
