The two wide band gap dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) Gd:GaN and Co:ZnO are among the most favored materials for spintronic applications. Despite intense research efforts during the last years, the origin of the magnetic order is still under debate. This work reports structural and magnetic investigations on these DMS materials employing several complementary techniques. The X-ray linear dichroism (XLD) has been used to gain element-specific insight into the local structure of dopants and cations. X-ray diffraction (XRD) has resulted in information about the global structural properties.…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
The two wide band gap dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) Gd:GaN and Co:ZnO are among the most favored materials for spintronic applications. Despite intense research efforts during the last years, the origin of the magnetic order is still under debate. This work reports structural and magnetic investigations on these DMS materials employing several complementary techniques. The X-ray linear dichroism (XLD) has been used to gain element-specific insight into the local structure of dopants and cations. X-ray diffraction (XRD) has resulted in information about the global structural properties. Magnetic characterization by superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) has been complemented by electron spin resonance (ESR) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). This compilation of different techniques has yield new insight in the complex magnetic behavior of these wide band gap dilute magnetic semiconductors.
Autorenporträt
Tom Kammermeier studied physics at the Rheinisch-WestfälischeTechnische Hochschule Aachen (RWTH). From 2005 to 2009 he joinedthe European Union funded research project MAGLOMAT (MagnetoLogic Materials) hosted by the University of Duisburg-Essen. Thepresent work is based on results obtained during the MAGLOMATproject.
