Weak ferromagnetic behavior of Cd 1- x- yMn xFe yTe ( y ∼ 0.01)
Abstract
Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility and magnetization curve were obtained for Cd 1- x- yMn xFe yTe single crystal. We find weak ferromagnetic behavior only in the sample with x = 0.37 at which the electrical resistivity shows singular behavior. The origin of such weak ferromagnetism would be ascribed to the s—d interaction between the band electron and Fe ion.
