We present a theoretical study of the infrared magneto-optical properties of ferromagnetic (iii,mn)v semiconductors. our analysis combines the kinetic exchange model for (iii,mn)v ferromagnetism with the kubo linear response theory and the born approximation estimates for the effect of disorder on the valence-band quasiparticles. we predict a prominent feature in the ac-hall conductivity at a frequency that varies over the range from 200 to 400 mev, depending on mn and carrier densities, and ...We present a theoretical study of the infrared magneto-optical properties of ferromagnetic (iii,mn)v semiconductors. our analysis combines the kinetic exchange model for (iii,mn)v ferromagnetism with the kubo linear response theory and the born approximation estimates for the effect of disorder on the valence-band quasiparticles. we predict a prominent feature in the ac-hall conductivity at a frequency that varies over the range from 200 to 400 mev, depending on mn and carrier densities, and is associated with transitions between heavy-hole and light-hole bands. in its zero frequency limit, our hall conductivity reduces to the k-space berry's phase value predicted by a recent theory of the anomalous hall effect that is able to account quantitatively for experiment. we compute theoretical estimates for magnetic circular dichroism, faraday rotation, and kerr effect parameters as a function of mn concentration and free carrier density. the midinfrared response feature is present in each of these magneto-optical effects.» weiterlesen» einklappen
