摘要
We have found a staircase-like hysteresis loop in III-V compound diluted magnetic semiconductor (In,Mn)As in magneto-transport behavior below 1 K. The observed stepwise changes are attributed to the corresponding jumps in magnetization and are associated with the depinning process of domain walls. We discuss thermal avalanche effect and quantum tunneling, (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
