Epitaxial growth of NiMnSb on GaAs(1 1 1)A and B
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract We have grown epitaxial NiMnSb films on GaAs(1 1 1)A and (1 1 1)B by molecular beam epitaxy. Stoichiometric and Sb-rich films show the formation of MnSb and NiSb inclusions that can be interpreted as extended stacking faults. Sb-poor films are single-crystalline. A saturation magnetization as high as 700 kA/m and coercive fields down to 0.7 mT indicate the good quality of the films.
