IV-VI diluted magnetic semiconductor Ge1-xCrxTe layers up to x=0.1 were grown on SrF2 substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. In site reflection high-energy electron diffraction shows a streaky pattern with sixfold symmetry in the plane for the Ge1-xCrxTe layer, implying an epitaxial growth of Ge1-xCrxTe [111]/SrF2 [111]. A clear hysteresis loop is observed in the anomalous Hall effect measurements due to the strong spin-orbit interaction in the host GeTe. The Curie temperature increases with increasing Cr composition up to 200 K, but there is no clear dependence of the Curie temperature on the hole concentration, implying that the mechanism of the ferromagnetic interaction among Cr ions is different from Mn doped diluted magnetic semiconductors.

High Curie temperature of 900 K has been reported in Cr-doped AlN diluted magnetic semiconductors prepared by various methods, which is exciting for spintronic applications. It is believed that N defects play important roles in achieving the high tem perature ferromagnetism in good samples. Motivated by these experimental advances, we use a full-potential density-functional-theory method and supercell approach to investigate N defects and their effects on ferromagnetism of (Al,Cr)N with N vacancies (V_N). Calculated results are in agreement with experimental observations and facts of real Cr-doped AlN samples and their synthesis. Our first-principles results are useful to elucidating the mechanism for the ferromagnetism and exploring high-performance Cr-doped AlN diluted magnetic semiconductors.
We report the epitaxial growth of CryGe1-y and CryMnxGe1-x-y(001) thin films on GaAs(001), describe the structural and transport properties, and compare the measured magnetic properties with those predicted by theory. The samples are strongly p-type, and hole densities increase with Cr concentration. The CryGe1-y system remains paramagnetic for the growth conditions and low Cr concentrations employed (y < 0.04), consistent with density functional theory predictions. Addition of Cr into the ferromagnetic semiconductor MnxGe1-x host systematically reduces the Curie temperature and total magnetization.

Recently a new type diluted magnetic semiconductor (BaK)(ZnMn)2As2 (BZA) with high Cure temperature (Tc) was discovered showing independent spin and charge doping mechanism. This makes BZA a promising material for spintronics devices. Here we report for the first time the successful growth of BZA single crystal. An Andreev reflection junction that can be used to evaluate spin polarization was fabricated based on the BZA single crystal, a 66% spin polarization of the BZA single crystal was hence obtained by Andreev reflection spectroscopy analysis.

Europium nitride is semiconducting and contains non-magnetic 3+, but sub-stoichiometric EuN has Eu in a mix of 2+ and 3+ charge states. We show that at 2+ ~concentrations near 15-20% EuN is ferromagnetic with a Curie temperature as high as 120 K. The 3+ ~polarization follows that of the 2+, confirming that the ferromagnetism is intrinsic to the EuN which is thus a novel diluted magnetic semiconductor. Transport measurements shed light on the likely exchange mechanisms.
We present the studies of Sn/1-x/Cr/x/Te semimagnetic semiconductors with chemical composition x ranging from 0.004 to 0.012. The structural characterization indicates that even at low average Cr-content x < ?0.012, the aggregation into micrometer si ze clusters appears in our samples. The magnetic properties are affected by the presence of clusters. In all our samples we observe the transition into the ordered state at temperatures between 130 and 140 K. The analysis of both static and dynamic magnetic susceptibility data indicates that the spin-glass-like state is observed in our samples. The addition of Cr to the alloy seems to shift the spin-glass-like transition from 130 K for x = 0.004 to 140 K for x = 0.012.
