  2. 2. Magnetism in Band Gap Engineered Sputtered MgxZn(1-x)O Thin Films

    Author : Sreekanth Mahadeva; K Venkat Rao; Lyubov Belova; Mark Fox; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetron co-sputtering; MgO; MgxZn 1-x O; MnxMg 1-x O; thin films; Room-temperature ferromagnetism; band gap engineering; and intrinsic defects;

    Abstract : This dissertation presents a comprehensive study of the intrinsic room temperature ferromagnetism, RTFM, in technologically important thin films of ZnO, MgO, Mg@ZnO, the so-called d0–magnets that do not contain any intrinsic magnetic elements. We also present the first report on magnetism in Mn doped MgO films fabricated by dc magnetron sputtering. READ MORE

  4. 4. Density Functional Theory Applied to Materials for Spintronics

    Author : Diana Mihaela Iusan; Olle Eriksson; Biplab Sanyal; Hiroshi Katayama-Yoshida; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spintronics; dilute magnetic semiconductors; density functional theory; exchange interactions; magnetic percolation; ordering temperature; disorder; electronic structure; Physics; Fysik; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Abstract : The properties of dilute magnetic semiconductors have been studied by combined ab initio, Monte Carlo, and experimental techniques. This class of materials could be very important for future spintronic devices, that offer enriched functionality by making use of both the spin and the charge of the electrons. READ MORE

  5. 5. Novel room temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors

    Author : Amita Gupta; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In today's information world, bits of data are processed bysemiconductor chips, and stored in the magnetic disk drives.But tomorrow's information technology may see magnetism (spin)and semiconductivity (charge) combined in one 'spintronic'device that exploits both charge and 'spin' to carry data (thebest of two worlds).
