Abstract [en]

Based on first-principles calculations and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, we design a realistic and practical codoping technique for increasing the concentration of Mn atoms in GaAs and realizing high Curie temperatures in (Ga, Mn) As. We found that using codoping of Li interstitial atoms during the crystal growth has two great advantages. First, due to lower formation energy of Li interstitials compared to Mn interstitials, Li prevents formation of unwanted Mn interstitials. Second, Li interstitials can be removed by using post-growth annealing at low temperatures. This codoping method offers a general strategy to go far beyond the solubility limit and it should be applicable also to other diluted magnetic semiconductor systems.
