Show Abstract
Magnetic properties of IV–VI compound GeTe based diluted magnetic semiconductors with 3d transition metals from Ti to Ni have been investigated. Ferromagnetic order is observed for the Cr, Mn, and Fe doped GeTe films, whereas the Ti, V, Co, and Ni doped films are paramagnetic. The ferromagnetic order could give rise to pd exchange interaction because amplitudes of negative magnetoresistance and the anomalous Hall effect are proportional to that of spontaneous magnetization. The Curie temperatures determined by extrapolating the steep linear part of the temperature dependence of the squared residual magnetization for the Cr, Mn, and Fe doped GeTe films are 12, 47, and 100 K, respectively. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
We have fabricated Cr and Fe-doped bulk Ge single crystal using the vertical gradient solidification method. The Cr-doped Ge single crystal showed ferromagnetic ordering at 126 K, as determined from temperature dependent magnetization and resistance measurements. The measured magnetic moment per Cr was 0.83 μB at 5 K. On the other hand, Fe0.05Ge0.95 showed ferromagnetic ordering at 233 K. The coersive field was 80 Oe at 5 K. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
ZnO based heterostructure, which contains magnetic impurities in the barrier layer, is grown on c-cut sapphire substrate by pulsed laser deposition. The temperature dependence of the mobility of the Zn0.9Mn0.1O/ZnO heterostructure exhibits the suppression of ionized impurity scattering below 100 K. The carrier concentration and the mobility measured at 1.85 K are 4.0×1012 l/cm2 and 360 cm2/V s. Shubnikov–de Haas oscillations are clearly observed in longitudinal magnetoresistance above 3.7 T at the same temperature. These transport properties reveal that two-dimensional electron gas is successfully obtained at the Zn0.9Mn0.1O/ZnO interface. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
We have investigated the microstructure and the magnetic properties of cobalt substituted ZnO thin films deposited on sapphire (0001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. We have optimized the growth condition using in situ monitoring by reflection high-energy electron diffraction. We found that ferromagnetic films need to be grown at low oxygen partial pressure (<10−6 Torr). Films with 25% of Co are ferromagnetic at room temperature with clear out-of-plane anisotropy. We have looked for spurious origins of the ferromagnetic signal and found none. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
Epitaxial Si:Ce films with smooth surfaces were prepared by low temperature molecular beam epitaxy. Although as-deposited films showed positive magnetization due to the existence of Ce having been substituted in Si lattice, the conduction was n type. The conduction changed to p type as a result of hydrogen termination, indicating that the film had contained dangling bonds. The magnetization behavior of the as-deposited n-type sample is completely identical to that of the p-type sample. The temperature dependence of resistivity (ρT) for each sample with n-type or p-type conduction has a cusp at 150 K, which is related to the spin–glass transition. But the cusp observed in the ρT curve of the sample with n-type conduction is broader than that of the sample with p-type conduction. It seems to have originated from the spin dynamics in Si:Ce with different carrier types. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.

Show Abstract
Electrical and optical properties of Alq3 based organic light emitting diodes with normal and spin polarized electrodes are presented. Epitaxial semitransparent highly spin polarized La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 were used as hole injector, substituting the traditional indium tin oxide electrode. A comparison of electroluminescence and IV curves between similar devices with and without spin polarized injection is reported. The results are a first step in realizing an operating device where the light intensity of the emission can be tuned by controlling the spin injection. © 2003 American Institute of Physics.
