Boosting the Curie temperature with correlations in diluted magnetic semiconductors
We present a quantitative theory for the effects of correlated doping on the ferromagnetism of diluted magnetic semiconductors. It predicts that room temperature ferromagnetism should be possible in homogeneous, but correlated, samples of MnxGa1−xAs. The theory predicts lower critical temperatures for MnxGa1−xN.

متن کاملEffective exchange interaction and Curie temperature in magnetic semiconductors
Based on a previously reported double-resonance mechanism, we present an analytical expression of the effective exchange interaction between impurity moments of transition-metal elements introduced in semiconductors. It is shown that the exchange interaction is enhanced by several orders of magnitude as compared with the ordinary RKKY interaction when the Fermi level and impurity states are clo...
متن کاملTowards a new class of heavy ion doped magnetic semiconductors for room temperature applications
The article presents, using Bi doped ZnO, an example of a heavy ion doped oxide semiconductor, highlighting a novel p-symmetry interaction of the electronic states to stabilize ferromagnetism. The study includes both ab initio theory and experiments, which yield clear evidence for above room temperature ferromagnetism. ZnBi(x)O(1-x) thin films are grown using the pulsed laser deposition techniq...
متن کاملMn,Cd-metallothionein-2: a room temperature magnetic protein.
Naturally occurring metallothionein (MT) is a metal binding protein, which binds to seven Zn2+ through 20 conserved cysteines and forms two metal binding clusters with a Zinc-Blende structure. We demonstrate that the MT, when substituting the Zn2+ ions by Mn2+ and Cd2+, exhibits magnetic hysteresis loop observable by SQUID from 10 to 330 K. The magnetic moment may have originated from the bridg...
متن کاملLimits on the Curie temperature of „III,Mn...V ferromagnetic semiconductors
Mean-field-theory predicts that the Curie temperature Tc of a ~III,Mn!V ferromagnet will be proportional to the valence band density-of-states of its host ~III,V! semiconductor, suggesting a route toward room-temperature ferromagnetism in this materials class. In this letter, we use theoretical estimates of spin-wave energies and Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate that long-wavelength colle...
