摘要
We report on ferromagnetic characteristics of Zn1-xMnxO (x=0.1 and 0.3) thin films grown on Al2O3(00.1) substrates using laser molecular-beam epitaxy. By increasing the Mn content, the films exhibited increases in both the c-axis lattice constant and fundamental band gap energy. The Curie temperature obtained from temperature-dependent magnetization curves was 45 K for the film with x=0.3, depending on the Mn composition in the films. The remanent magnetization and coercive field of Zn0.9Mn0.1O at 5 K were 0.9 emu/g and 300 Oe, respectively. For Zn0.7Mn0.3O, the remanent magnetization at 5 K increased to 3.4 emu/g.
