“…The ferromagnetic Heusler alloy Fe 3 Si is a promising material for spintronic applications because its interface with GaAs is thermally more stable than elemental ferromagnets [4][5][6]. So far the growth of ferromagnets on GaAs substrates has been focused mainly on low-index surfaces.…”

“…This structure is almost lattice matched to the GaAs(001) substrate yielding the desired epitaxial growth and high interfacial perfection [3]. The FM/SC interface of Fe 3 Si/GaAs(001) is thermally stable up to 700 K [6]. Moreover, a known feature of Heusler alloys is their high Curie temperature which is 840 K in this case [7].…”

“…This temperature is much higher than usually used for the growth of Fe films on GaAs [4][5][6]. Moreover, we have recently demonstrated that the Fe 3 Si films are thermally stable to ex situ annealing at least up to 400 C [7]. These properties make Fe 3 Si, a very good alternative to elemental ferromagnets.…”
