Abstract

The magnetic and electronic properties of some I-VI semiconductors with 3d transition metals other than Mn are presented. For example, the nonzero orbital moment in Fe2+ leads to more complex electronic energy levels than for Mnt ions. In (CdFe)Se, inelastic light scattering experiments demonstrate that the ground state is nonmagnetic (Van Vleck ion), and directly measures the energy spacing between the three lowest levels. For Sc2+ ions the donor level lies above the bottom of the conduction band in the Cd-based materials.
