Abstract:The Mn-doped GaN (GaMnN) films on c-plane sapphire substrates were prepared by using Laser Molecular Beam Epitaxy (LMBE) at different base nitrogen pressure, followed by annealing in the ammonia atmosphere at 950 °C for 30 min, to study the original reason of the room-temperature ferromagnetism of GaMnN films. We found the crystalline quality was sensitive to the base nitrogen pressure during growth. X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) analysis confirmed that the Mn3+ and Mn2+ coexist in our samples. The room-te… Show more
