摘要
A new class of III-V-based magnetic(GaMnAs)/nonmagnetic(AlAs) semiconductor superlattices (SLs) has been successfully grown by low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements show that the SLs are formed as intended with abrupt interfaces. Magnetization and magnetotransport measurements have revealed that the SLs having relatively wide (Ga,Mn)As layers (greater than or equal to 70 Angstrom) are ferromagnetic at low temperature, and the hole concentration and Curie temperature are estimated.
