摘要
Spin ordering in a semiconductor has attracted much attention in the community of condensed matter physics. By combining ferromagnetism and the semiconducting nature, systems such as Mn-doped PbSnTe or InAs were found to exhibit tunable magnetic properties responsive to an externally applied electric field. It thus holds great promises for developing novel spintronics with the tuning-knobs such as gate voltage. Conventionally, those systems are often studied in bulk forms and commonly referred to diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS).
