摘要
eta-phase manganese nitride films have been grown on LaAlO3 (100) and LaSrAlO4 (001) substrates by using plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. On the basis of reflective high energy electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, it is confirmed that two types of eta-Mn3N2 with different lattice constants coexist in the films due to the lattice mismatches between the Mn3N2 films and the substrates. Magnetic properties of the films were characterized by a superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer at room temperature. The Mn3N2 films on LaAlO3 substrate were found to have room-temperature ferromagnetism. Two potential interaction mechanisms are proposed regarding the origin of the observed ferromagnetism.
