Electric field control of magnetization dynamics in ZnMnSe/ZnBeSe diluted-magnetic-semiconductor heterostructures
Abstract
We show that the magnetization dynamics in diluted magnetic semiconductors can be controlled separately from the static magnetization by means of an electric field. The spin-lattice relaxation (SLR) time of magnetic Mn2+ ions was tuned by two orders of magnitude by a gate voltage applied to n-type modulation-doped (Zn,Mn)Se/(Zn,Be)Se quantum wells. The effect is based on providing an additional channel for SLR by a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). The static magnetization responsible for the giant Zeeman spin splitting of excitons was not influenced by the 2DEG density.
