Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We grow (Ga,Mn)As codoped with nonmagnetic Li donors by molecular beam epitaxy. We show that the solubility of Mn in GaAs is increased by Li doping above 1%. (Ga,Mn)As with Mn composition of 15% and Li composition of 1% shows the magnitude of magnetization of 140 mT, which is the largest value reported so far, and the result indicate that the most of introduced Mn substitute into cation sites. We observe pronounced in-plane magnetic anisotropy, whose direction depends on temperature.
