First-principle vs experimental design of diluted magnetic semiconductor

Abstract:

Semiconductors that exhibit room-temperature ferromagnetism are central to find ways to manipulate and use electronic spin to the same degree that electronic charge is used in silicon-based electronics. Diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are a promising class of such materials to the development of semiconductor spintronics, but their success will depend on our ability to understand and optimize their behavior. The interface between first principle and experimental materials design could provide a way to achieve these goals. The purpose of talk is to propose some ideas to answer the most important question in material science for semiconductor spintronics, namely, how we can realize roomtemperature ferromagnetism in DMS? And I will discuss the correlation between first principle and experimental design to see how we can predict the properties of yet-to-be-synthesized materials. Based on experimental design I will discuss structural and magnetic properties of same DMS materials. Based on firstprinciples spin-density functional calculations, the half-metallic ferromagnetic properties of same DMS materials with magnetic impurity have been investigated. New magnetic behaviors will be discussed in DMSs recently observed as spin glass, super paramagnetic, this creates new opportunities for development and construction a new spintronics devises.
