Abstract:Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are interesting because of the interplay between the electronic and magnetic subsystems. Selected magnetic properties of IV–VI DMS are described, looking at the similarities and differences between magnetic properties of II–VI, IV–VI, and III–V DMS. The influence of the crystalline and electronic structure of the material on its magnetic properties is focused on, especially on the exchange interactions among magnetic ions. Methods of determination of the exchange parameter… Show more
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.
