The Fermi level dependence of the optical and magnetic properties of Ga1−xMnxN grown by metal–organic chemical vapour deposition
The suppression of the ferromagnetic behaviour of metal–organic chemical vapour deposition grown Ga1−x Mnx N epilayers by silicon co-doping, and the influence of the Fermi level position on and its correlation with the magnetic and optical properties of Ga1−x Mnx N are reported. Variation in the position of the Fermi level in the GaN bandgap is achieved by using different Mn concentrations and ...
متن کاملCorrelation of the structural and ferromagnetic properties of Ga1 xMnxN grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition
Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) has been used to grow high-quality epitaxial films of Ga1 xMnxN of varying thickness and manganese doping levels. No macroscopic second phases were observed via high resolution X-ray diffraction. Atomic force microscopy revealed MOCVD-like step flow growth patterns with a mean surface roughness as low as 3.78 Å in lightly doped samples, and matched...
متن کاملX-ray magnetic circular dichroism characterization of GaN/Ga1−xMnxN digital ferromagnetic heterostructure
We have investigated the magnetic properties of a GaN/Ga1−xMnxN (x = 0.1) digital ferromagnetic heterostructure (DFH) showing ferromagnetic behavior using soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). The Mn L2,3-edge XAS spectra were similar to those of Ga1−xMnxN random alloy thin films, indicating a substitutional doping of high concentration Mn into G...

Cobalt (Co) doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin films, containing different amountof Cobalt nanoparticles as the Co doping source, deposited by the sol–gel spin coatingmethod onto glass via annealing temperature at 400˚C, have been investigated by opticalcharacterization method. The effect of Co incorporation on the surface morphology wasclearly observed from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images. ...
متن کاملMagnetic and Optical Properties of Mn-doped Gan Thin Films and P-i-n Devices
In this paper, we report on the growth and characterization of single crystal GaMnN thin films and p-i-n junction devices grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Single crystal GaMnN films were achieved by optimizing the growth temperature, growth rate and the Mn:Ga gas phase ratio. A growth window for obtaining single crystal Ga1-xMnxN with 0.006≤x≤0.023 was found within a te...
