Circularly polarized photocurrent, observed in p-doped bulk GaAs, varies nonlinearly with the applied bias voltage at room temperature. It has been explored that this phenomenon arises from the current-induced spin polarization in GaAs. In addition, we found that the current-induced spin polarization direction of p-doped bulk GaAs grown in the (001) direction lies in the sample plane and is perpendicular to the applied electric field, which is the same as that in GaAs quantum well. This research indicates that circularly polarized photocurrent is a new optical approach to investigate the current-induced spin polarization at room temperature.

ABSTRACTThe so-called “d0” magnetism observed in semiconductors, which is not caused by partially filled d orbitals, has challenged our conventional understanding on the origin of magnetism. One class of semiconductor materials showing d0 ferromagnetism is undoped oxides and nitrides. Here, we review the ferromagnetic properties of undoped GaN and MgO based on our recent investigations. It is revealed that the room-temperature ferromagnetism originates from the anion dangling bonds associated with the surface cation-vacancies. And the magnetism of ferromagnetic coupling between the vacancy induced local magnetic moment by through-bond spin polarization in undoped semiconductors is reviewed according to our works.

Room-temperature ferromagnetism was observed in the SiCN films prepared by ion implantation. The result indicates that N ion implantation dosage in the film has great effect on the observed room-temperature ferromagnetism of the films. Along with the increase of ion implantation dosage, the N ions increase and the magnetism enhances. Because of the ion implantation will cause a lot of defects on the surface of SiC films, which will induce a lot of vacancies. The C atoms are replaced by the N ions doped, the concentration of the N ions decides the charges states and spin polarizations of Si vacancy defects. Local magnetic moment is induced because of the spin polarization of the Si vacancy defects, and the films show ferromagnetic properties.Charge states and spin polarizations of silicon vacancy defects can be manipulated by N atoms which induces the ferromagnetism.
