Optical properties of Mn-doped InAs and InMnAs epitaxial films

The optical properties of In 1− x Mn x As ferromagnetic semiconductors have been measured over the spectral range of 0.05–3.5 eV to determine their electronic structure. For single-phase InMnAs alloy thin films ( x

The energy of these transitions decreases with increasing manganese concentration. This demonstrates that the manganese impurity band broadens at the L-point. A broad featureless absorption band was observed between 0.05 and 0.30 eV.This extrinsic absorption band is attributed to light hole to heavy hole inter-valence band transitions.
