Abstract

Neutron diffraction patterns of MBE-grown single crystal zinc-blende epilayers of Cd1−xMnxSe with x=0.70 and 0.75 reveal the onset of long-range Type-III AF ordering at low T, in sharp contrast with earlier studies of bulk II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductors, where only short-range Type III correlations are observed. Results of first neutron diffraction studies of magnetic ordering in MBE-grown ZnSe/MnSe superlattices are also reported.
