| Research Abstract |
Aim of the present study is to obtain information on unoccupied conduction bands of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xY(Y=S,Se,Te) using inverse photoemission spectroscopy (IPES) and to reveal a whole electronic structure from a combination of new IPES and previous photoemission spectra.
IPES spectra are measured by monitoring intensity of the emitted ultraviolet photon-flux as a function of incident electron energy of 1-10 muA. On the other hand, since the resistivity of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xY(Y=S,Se,Te) is -100 MOMEGA, charging effect takes place and, thus, makes measurements difficult. One can avoid such a problem using thin film single crystals of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xY(Y=S,Se,Te). 1990:(1)To prepare thin film single crystals of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xY(Y=S,Se,Te), an appratus of hot wall epitaxy was designed and installed. (2)An ultrahigh vacuum chamber, in which the apparatus is placed, was made. This chamber was used as a sample preparation chamber for the IPES measurements.1991:(1)Cd_<1-x>Mn_xTe samples with -100 A thickness were grown in the preparation chamber. (2)IPES spectra of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xTe samples were successfully obtained. 1992:(1)Dependence of the IPES spectra of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xTe on the Mn concentration was systematically investigated and analyzed in detail. (2)Combination of photoemission and IPES spectra revealed a whole electronic structure of Cd_<1-x>Mn_xTe. In addition, the Mn 3d spin-exchange splitting energy was accurately determined to be 7.1*0.2 eV for the first time.
Mayor part of the initial purpose has been achieved. The present work will be extended to other Cd_<1-x>Mn_xY(Y=S,Se,Te) alloys.
