We report results of investigations of structural and transport properties of GaAs/Ga(1-x)In(x)As/GaAs quantum wells (QWs) having a 0.5-1.8 ML thick Mn layer, separated from the QW by a 3 nm thick spacer. The structure has hole mobility of about 2000 cm2/(V*s) being by several orders of magnitude higher than in known ferromagnetic two-dimensional structures. The analysis of the electro-physical properties of these systems is based on detailed study of their structure by means of high-resolution X-ray diffractometry and glancing-incidence reflection, which allow us to restore the depth profiles of structural characteristics of the QWs and thin Mn containing layers. These investigations show absence of Mn atoms inside the QWs. The quality of the structures was also characterized by photoluminescence spectra from the QWs. Transport properties reveal features inherent to ferromagnetic systems: a specific maximum in the temperature dependence of the resistance and the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) observed in samples with both metallic and activated types of conductivity up to ~100 K. AHE is most pronounced in the temperature range where the resistance maximum is observed, and decreases with decreasing temperature. The results are discussed in terms of interaction of 2D-holes and magnetic Mn ions in presence of large-scale potential fluctuations related to random distribution of Mn atoms. The AHE values are compared with calculations taking into account its intrinsic mechanism in ferromagnetic systems.

We present here the electronic structure and optical properties of InGaAs quantum wells with barrier doped with Manganese. We calculated the electronic states and optical emission within the envelope function and effective mass approximations using t
he spin-density functional theory in the presence of an external magnetic field. We observe magneto-oscillations of the Landau levels at low-magnetic fields (B < 5 T) that are dominated by the magnetic interaction between holes spin and Mn spin, while at high magnetic fields the spin-polarization of the hole gas is the dominant effect. Our results also show that a gate voltage alter significantly the magneto-oscillations of the emission energy and may be an external control parameter for the magnetic properties of the system. Finally, we discuss the influence of the Landau Levels oscillations in the emission spectra and compare with available experimental.
We present a microscopic theory for transport of the spin polarized charge density wave with both electrons and holes in the $(111)$ GaAs quantum wells. We analytically show that, contradicting to the commonly accepted belief, the spin and charge mot
ions are bound together only in the fully polarized system but can be separated in the case of low spin polarization or short spin lifetime even when the spatial profiles of spin density wave and charge density wave overlap with each other. We further show that, the Coulomb drag between electrons and holes can markedly enhance the hole spin diffusion if the hole spin motion can be separated from the charge motion. In the high spin polarized system, the Coulomb drag can boost the hole spin diffusion coefficient by more than one order of magnitude.
We have studied spin dephasing in a high-mobility two-dimensional electron system (2DES), confined in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well grown in the [110] direction, using the resonant spin amplification (RSA) technique. From the characteristic shape of the
RSA spectra, we are able to extract the spin dephasing times (SDT) for electron spins aligned along the growth direction or within the sample plane, as well as the $g$ factor. We observe a strong anisotropy in the spin dephasing times. While the in-plane SDT remains almost constant as the temperature is varied between 4 K and 50 K, the out-of-plane SDT shows a dramatic increase at a temperature of about 25 K and reaches values of about 100 ns. The SDTs at 4 K can be further increased by additional, weak above-barrier illumination. The origin of this unexpected behavior is discussed, the SDT enhancement is attributed to the redistribution of charge carriers between the electron gas and remote donors.
Structural and magnetic properties of GaAs thin films with embedded MnAs nanoclusters were investigated as function of the annealing temperature and layers composition. The presence of two kinds of nanoclusters with different dimensions and structure
were detected. The fraction of Mn atoms in each kind of cluster was estimated from the extended X-ray absorption fine structure analysis. This analysis ruled out the possibility of the existence of nanoclusters containing a hypothetic MnAs cubic compound - only (Mn,Ga)As cubic clusters were detected. Change of the layer strain from the compressive to tensile was related to the fraction of zinc blende and hexagonal inclusions. Thus the zinc blende inclusions introduce much larger strain than hexagonal ones. The explanation of observed thermal induced strain changes of the layers from the compressive to tensile is proposed. The magnetic properties of the samples were consistent with structural study results. Their showed that in sample containing solely cubic (Mn,Ga)As inclusions Mn ions inside the inclusions are still ferromagnetically coupled, even at room temperature. This fact can be explained by existence in these clusters of GaMnAs solid solution with content of Mn higher than 15 % as was found in theoretical calculations.
Transport properties of GaAs/{delta}<Mn>/GaAs/IntimesGa1-timesAs/GaAs structures containing InxGa1-xAs (times {approx} 0.2) quantum well (QW) and Mn delta layer (DL) with relatively high, about one Mn monolayer (ML) content, are studied. In these str
uctures DL is separated from QW by GaAs spacer with the thickness ds = 2-5 nm. All structures possess a dielectric character of conductivity and demonstrate a maximum in the resistance temperature dependence Rxx(T) at the temperature {approx} 46K which is usually associated with the Curie temperature Tc of ferromagnetic (FM) transition in DL. However, it is found that the Hall effect concentration of holes pH in QW does not decrease below TC as one ordinary expects in similar systems. On the contrary, the dependence pH(T) experiences a minimum at T = 80-100 K depending on the spacer thickness, then increases at low temperatures more strongly than ds is smaller and reaches a giant value pH = (1-2)cdot10^13 cm^(-2). Obtained results are interpreted in the terms of magnetic proximity effect of DL on QW, leading to induce spin polarization of the holes in QW. Strong structural and magnetic disorder in DL and QW, leading to the phase segregation in them is taken into consideration. The high pH value is explained as a result of compensation of the positive sign normal Hall effect component by the negative sign anomalous Hall effect component.
