Emergence of pressure-induced metamagnetic-like state in Mn-doped CdGeAs2 chalcopyrite

Abstract

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on resistivity and magnetic ac susceptibility has been studied in Mn-doped CdGeAs2 room-temperature (RT) ferromagnetic chalcopyrite with two types of MnAs micro-clusters. The slight increase of temperature by about 30 K in the region between RT and Curie temperature TC causes a significant change in the positions of pressure-induced semiconductor-metal transition and magnetic phase transitions in low pressure area. By conducting measurements of the anomalous Hall resistance in the field H ≤ 5 kOe, we present experimental evidence for pressure-induced metamagnetic-like state during the paramagnetic phase at pressure P = 5 GPa.
