Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have successfully grown a new class of narrow-gap III-V based ferromagnetic semiconductors with zinc-blende crystal structures and their heterostructures. We have revealed their properties and functionalities, which can be applied to spintronics devices. Ferromagnetic semiconductors (FMS) are alloy semiconductors doped with magnetic atoms and have both the properties of semiconductors and ferromagnets, thus expected to be functional materials for next-generation electronics. We have created p-type (Ga,Fe)Sb and n-type (In,Fe)Sb whose Curie temperatures are higher than room temperature, and their quantum heterostructures. These new materials and heterostructures are shown to have unique and useful properties, which can be applied to future spintronics devices.
