Robustness of ferromagnetism in (In,Fe)Sb diluted magnetic semiconductor to variation of charge carrier concentration and Fermi level position

The influence of He+ ion irradiation on the transport and magnetic properties of epitaxial layers of a diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) (In,Fe)Sb, a two-phase (In,Fe)Sb composite and a nominally undoped InSb semiconductor has been investigated. In all layers, a conductivity type conversion from the initial n-type to the ptype has been found. The ion fluence at which the conversion occurs depends on the Fe concentration in the InSb matrix. Magnetotransport properties of the two-phase (In,Fe)Sb layer are strongly affected by ferromagnetic Fe inclusions. An influence of the number of electrically active radiation defects on the magnetic properties of the single-phase In0.75Fe0.25Sb DMS has been found. At the same time, the results show that the magnetic properties of the In0.75Fe0.25Sb DMS are quite resistant to significant changes of the charge carrier concentration and the Fermi level position. The results confirm a weak interrelation between the ferromagnetism and the charge carrier concentration in (In,Fe)Sb.

Towards Hardware Implementation of Double-Layer Perceptron Based on Metal-Oxide Memristive Nanostructures

Construction and training principles have been proposed and tested for an artificial neural network based on metal-oxide thin-film nanostructures possessing bipolar resistive switching (memristive) effect. Experimental electronic circuit of neural network is implemented as a double-layer perceptron with a weight matrix composed of 32 memristive devices. The network training algorithm takes into account technological variations of the parameters of memristive nanostructures. Despite the limited size of weight matrix the developed neural network model is well scalable and capable of solving nonlinear classification problems.

High-temperature intrinsic ferromagnetism in the (In,Fe)Sb semiconductor

The (In,Fe)Sb layers with the Fe content up to 13 at. % have been grown on (001) GaAs substrates using the pulsed laser deposition. The TEM investigations show that the (In,Fe)Sb layers are epitaxial and free of the inclusions of a second phase. The observation of the hysteretic magnetoresistance curves at temperatures up to 300 K reveals that the Curie point is above room temperature. The resonant character of magnetic circular dichroism confirms the intrinsic ferromagnetism in the (In,Fe)Sb layers. We suggest that the ferromagnetism of the (In,Fe)Sb matrix is not carrier-mediated and apparently is determined by the mechanism of superexchange interaction between Fe atoms (This work was presented at the XXI Symposium Nanophysics and Nanoelectronics, Nizhny Novgorod, March, 13-16, 2017 (book of proceedings v.1, p. 195), http://nanosymp.ru/UserFiles/Symp/2017_v1.pdf).
