We report a large tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) in (Ga,Mn)As lateral nanoconstrictions. Unlike previously reported tunneling magnetoresistance effects in nanocontacts, the TAMR does not require noncollinear magnetization on either side of the constriction. The nature of the effect is established by a direct comparison of its phenomenology with that of normal anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) measured in the same lateral geometry. The direct link we establish between the TAMR and AMR indicates that TAMR may be observable in other materials showing room temperature AMR and demonstrates that the physics of nanoconstriction magnetoresistive devices can be much richer than previously thought.
Time-resolved and time-integrated microphotoluminescence spectrometry of exciton and
biexciton transitions in a single self-assembled InGaN quantum dot gives sharp peaks, with the
biexciton 41 meV higher in energy. Theoretical modelling in the Hartree approximation (using
a self-consistent finite difference method) predicts a splitting of up to 51 meV. Time-resolved
microphotoluminescence measurements yield a radiative recombination lifetime of
1.0 ± 0.1 ns for the
exciton and 1.4 ± 0.1 ns for the biexciton. The data can be fitted to a coupled DE rate equation model,
confirming that the exciton state is refilled as biexcitons undergo radiative decay.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
