Abstract

Epitaxial, single-phase In0.9Mn0.1As films were grown using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy at temperatures as high as 520°C. Temperature- and field-dependent magnetization measurements indicated a single-phase film to be ferromagnetic with a Curie temperature of 333 K. Modeling of the magnetization data indicated that the ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic phase transition was intermediate between first and second order.
