One of the most attractive characteristics of diluted ferromagnetic semiconductors is the possibility to modulate their electronic and ferromagnetic properties, coupled by itinerant holes through various means. A prominent example is the modification of Curie temperature and magnetic anisotropy by ion implantation and pulsed laser melting in III–V diluted magnetic semiconductors. In this study, to the best of our knowledge, we performed, for the first time, the co-doping of (In,Mn)As diluted magnetic semiconductors by Al by co-implantation subsequently combined with a pulsed laser annealing technique. Additionally, the structural and magnetic properties were systematically investigated by gradually raising the Al implantation fluence. Unexpectedly, under a well-preserved epitaxial structure, all samples presented weaken Curie temperature, magnetization, as well as uniaxial magnetic anisotropies when more aluminum was involved. Such a phenomenon is probably due to enhanced carrier localization introduced by Al or the suppression of substitutional Mn atoms.

ABSTRACTTransient electrical conductance has been used to measure the resolidification velocity in silicon containing implanted solutes. Nonequilibrium segregation of the solutes occurs during the rapid resolidification following pulsed laser melting. The velocity of the liquid-solid interface is observed to depend on the type and concentration of the solute. A 25% reduction in solidification velocity is observed for an implanted indium concentration of three atomic percent. Implanted oxygen is also shown to reduce the solidification velocity. The dependence of the velocity on solute concentration impacts a variety of segregation, trapping and supersaturated solution studies.
