论文摘要
(GA,FE)SB是实用的Spintronic设备应用的有前途的铁磁半导体,因为其库丽温度($ t _ {\ rm c} $)高于室温。但是,具有高$ t _ {\ rm c} $的铁磁性的起源尚待阐明。在这里,我们使用软X射线角度分辨光谱光谱(SX-ARPES)来研究(ga $ _ {0.95} $,fe $ _ {0.05} $)SB的价频段(VB)结构,包括Fe-3 $ d $ d $ d $ d $ Inpurity band(ib),以揭开FERRERMAGNES的机械(IB)。我们发现(ga $ _ {0.95} $,fe $ _ {0.05} $)中的vb分散剂与SX-arpes观察到的SB类似于GASB的SB,这表明掺杂的Fe原子几乎不会影响频段分散体。 Fe-3 $ d $ resonant arpes Spectra表明,Fe-3 $ d $ ib穿过费米级别($ e _ {\ rm f} $),并与燃气VB杂交。这些观察结果表明(ga $ _ {0.95} $,fe $ _ {0.05} $)SB的VB结构与IB模型的VB结构是一致的,IB模型基于本地化的3 $ d $ d $电子磁性杂质电子之间的双交换相互作用。结果表明,(GA,FE)SB中的铁磁磁性是由Fe-3 $ d $ ib与配体$ P $ p $ gasb的杂交形成的。
(Ga,Fe)Sb is a promising ferromagnetic semiconductor for practical spintronic device applications because its Curie temperature ($T_{\rm C}$) is above room temperature. However, the origin of ferromagnetism with high $T_{\rm C}$ remains to be elucidated. Here, we use soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (SX-ARPES) to investigate the valence-band (VB) structure of (Ga$_{0.95}$,Fe$_{0.05}$)Sb including the Fe-3$d$ impurity band (IB), to unveil the mechanism of ferromagnetism in (Ga,Fe)Sb. We find that the VB dispersion in (Ga$_{0.95}$,Fe$_{0.05}$)Sb observed by SX-ARPES is similar to that of GaSb, indicating that the doped Fe atoms hardly affect the band dispersion. The Fe-3$d$ resonant ARPES spectra demonstrate that the Fe-3$d$ IB crosses the Fermi level ($E_{\rm F}$) and hybridizes with the VB of GaSb. These observations indicate that the VB structure of (Ga$_{0.95}$,Fe$_{0.05}$)Sb is consistent with that of the IB model which is based on double-exchange interaction between the localized 3$d$ electrons of the magnetic impurities. The results indicate that the ferromagnetism in (Ga,Fe)Sb is formed by the hybridization of the Fe-3$d$ IB with the ligand $p$ band of GaSb.
