Raman Scattering in Ferromagnetic Ge1 – xMnx Nanowires
摘要
Abstract
The temperature dependence of Raman scattering is investigated in nanowires of a dilute magnetic semiconductor Ge0.99Mn0.01. It is found that with increasing temperature a red shift (“softening”) of the optical LO-phonon line occurs at T ∼ 25 K. The observed behavior correlates with the data on the electron paramagnetic resonance of mobile charge carriers and indicates a strong interaction of holes with the phonon and magnetic subsystems.
