摘要:

研究了生长在半绝缘GaAs衬底上的(In,Fe)As铁磁半导体(FMS)层的各向异性磁电阻(AMR)。在一个10 nm厚的(In,Fe)As层,这是在低温下绝缘,我们观察到的结晶AMR与二重和八重对称性。在金属100 nm厚的(In,Fe)As层与较高的电子浓度,只有两次对称的结晶AMR观察。我们的结果表明,宏观铁磁性(In,Fe)As的磁各向异性,依赖于电子浓度。在100 nm厚的层中也观察到非晶AMR,但其幅度小至10^-5,表明在(In,Fe)As的费米能级附近没有s-d散射。我们提出了八重对称晶体各向异性的起源(In,Fe)As。

英文摘要:

We have investigated the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) of (In,Fe)As ferromagnetic semiconductor (FMS) layers grown on semi-insulating GaAs substrates. In a 10 nm-thick (In,Fe)As layer which is insulating at low temperature, we observed crystalline AMR with two-fold and eight-fold symmetries. In a metallic 100 nm-thick (In,Fe)As layer with higher electron concentration, only two-fold symmetric crystalline AMR was observed. Our results demonstrate the macroscopic ferromagnetism in (In,Fe)As with magnetic anisotropy that depends on the electron concentration. Non-crystalline AMR is also observed in the 100 nm-thick layer, but its magnitude is as small as 10^-5, suggesting that there is no s-d scattering near the Fermi level of (In,Fe)As. We propose the origin of the eight-fold symmetric crystalline anisotropy in (In,Fe)As.
