Absence of ferromagnetism in V-implanted ZnO single crystals
The structural and magnetic properties of V doped ZnO are presented. V ions
were introduced into hydrothermal ZnO single crystals by ion implantation with
fluences of 1.2*10^16 to 6*10^16 cm^-2. Post-implantation annealing was
performed in high vacuum from 823 K to 1023 K. The ZnO host material still
partly remains in a crystalline state after irradiation, and is partly
recovered by annealing. The V ions show a thermal mobility as revealed by depth
profile Auger electron spectroscopy. Synchrotron radiation x-ray diffraction
revealed no secondary phase formation which indicates the substitution of V
onto Zn site. However in all samples no pronounced ferromagnetism was observed
down to 5 K by a superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figs, MMM conference 2007, accepted by J. Appl. Phy
Superlattice interface and lattice strain measurement by ion channeling
[[abstract]]The ion-beam channeling technique has been used to characterize the interface and the first few layers of [100] GaSb/AlSb superlattice structures. Strain caused by alternating tensile and compressive stress has been detected by measuring the oscillation of the [110]-aligned direction with depth. From the angular displacement and its oscillation, the amount of strain in the superlattice has been determined directly.[[incitationindex]]SCI[[booktype]]紙本[[booktype]]電子
