ABSTRACTZnTe/Zn1-xMnxTe superlattices were grown on GaAs (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The multi-phonon processes including overtones and combinations of optical phonons have been studied by near resonant Raman scattering in the temperature range 13 K to 300 K. The strain arising from lattice mismatch gives rise to a shift in the optical-phonon frequencies. A two-phonon interface mode of superlattice has been observed and identified for the first time. Strain-induced red shifts of exciton energies related to transitions from the conduction subband to the light-hole and heavy-hole subband have been found by photoreflectance measurements. Experimental results agree well with the calculated strain-induced shift in superlattices.

Storage density on magnetic medium is increasing at an exponential rate. The magnetic region that stores one bit of information is correspondingly decreasing in size and will ultimately reach quantum dimensions. Magnetic quantum dots (QDs) can be grown using semiconductor as a host and magnetic constituents added to give them magnetic properties. Our results show how molecular beam epitaxy and, particularly, lattice-mismatched heteroepitaxy can be used to form laterally aligned, high-density semiconducting host in a single growth run without any use of lithography or etching. Representative results of how semiconductor QD hosts arrange themselves on various stripes and cross-hatch patterns are reported.

AbstractWe propose to use a paramagnetic diluted magnetic semiconductor Cd1-xMnxTe for magneto-optic waveguides, which can be integrated with semiconductor optic devices. Single crystal Cd1-xMnxTe films are epitaxially grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy method. A good optical confinement is obtained in the waveguide by using a Cd1-yMnyTe clad layer with Mn concentration higher than that of the waveguide core layer.
