We have studied the magnetic reversal of L-shaped nanostructures fabricated from (Ga,Mn)As. The strain relaxation due to the lithographic patterning results in each arm having a uniaxial magnetic anisotropy. Our analysis confirms that the magnetic reversal takes place via a combination of coherent rotation and domain wall propagation with the domain wall positioned at the corner of the device at intermediate stages of the magnetic hysteresis loops. The domain wall energy can be extracted from our analysis. Such devices have found implementation in studies of current induced domain wall motion and have the potential for application as non-volatile memory elements.
We study the effect of the shape anisotropy on the magnetic domain configurations of a ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As/GaAs(001) epitaxial wire as a function of temperature. Using magnetoresistance measurements, we deduce the magnetic configura
Atomic Force Microscopy and Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction measurements have revealed the presence of ripples aligned along the $[1bar{1}0]$ direction on the surface of (Ga,Mn)As layers grown on GaAs(001) substrates and buffer layers, with perio
A new scenario of the mechanism of intriguing ferromagnetic properties in Mn-doped magnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As is examined in detail. We find that magnetic features seen in zero-field cooled and field cooled magnetizations are not interpreted wi
We study a possible mechanism of the switching of the magnetic easy axis as a function of hole concentration in (Ga,Mn)As epilayers. In-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy along [110] is found to exceed intrinsic cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy ab
We present the manipulation of magnetic and electrical properties of (Ga,Mn)As by the adsorption of dye-molecules as a first step towards the realization of light-controlled magnetic-semiconductor/dye hybrid devices. A significant lowering of the Cur
