ABSTRACTThe study of ferromagnetic transition of Ga1-xMnxAs dilute magnetic semiconductor (DMS) is much of interest mainly due to the potential application in spintronic devices. Based on the mean field approach we present the average contribution of the hole spins by considering the holes in an impurity band (IB) and the critical concentration for the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in this semiconductor. In order to calculate the mean configuration of spins of impurities Mn+2 we use a formalism proposed for a spatial disordered system. The results for the metallic densities around the MIT transition are compared to experimental results and other theoretical findings.

Metal–Insulator transition using exact quasi dielectric functions is investigated for a shallow donor in an isolated well of GaAs/Ga 1-x Al s As superlattice system within the effective mass approximation. Vanishing of the donor ionization energy as a function of well width and the donor concentration suggests that no transition is possible below a well width of 50 Å supporting the scaling theory of localization. The effects of Anderson localization, exchange and correlation in the Hubbard model are included in a simple way. The relationship between the present model and the Mott criterion in terms of Hubbard model is also brought out. The critical concentration is enhanced when a random distribution of impurities is considered. Results are compared with the existing data available and discussed in the light of existing literature.
