The article reviews the physical properties of semimagnetic semiconductors of the type Hg_{1-x-y}Fe_{x}A^{II}_{y}Se_{1-z}B^{VI}_{z} and Hg_{1-x-y}Fe_{x}Mn_{y}Se. Optical, magnetooptical, transport and magnetotransport experiments showed that in Hg_{1-x}Fe_{x}Se substitutional iron forms a resonant donor state whose energy is superimposed on the conduction band continuum. Resulting anomalous properties of electron scattering rate, i.e. strong enhancement of electron mobility (or drop of Dingle temperature), which occur in Hg_{1-x}Fe_{x}Se at low temperatures in a certain Fe concentration range, are described. Next, theoretical models describing this anomalous reduction of the scattering rate are discussed. The description of thermomagnetic, optical, magnetooptical and magnetic properties of Hg_{1-x}Fe_{x}Se, with emphasis on features originating from the peculiar iron level position in the band structure of Hg_{1-x}Fe_{x}Se, conclude the first part of the present paper. In the second part the physical properties of the semiconducting alloys Hg_{1-x}Mn_{x}Se:Fe, Hg_{1-v}Cd_{v}Se:Fe, Hg_{1-x}Zn_{x}Se:Fe, HgSe_{1-x}Te_{x}:Fe and HgSe_{1-x}S_{x}:Fe are described. In particular, the dependence of the position of the Fe resonant donor state in the band structure on the crystal composition is discussed. The values of predicted Γ_{6} and Γ_{8} band offsets between HgSe and CdSe, HgTe, MnSe and ZnSe are given. The considerable attention is paid to the discussion of the mechanism limiting the electron mobility in the mixed alloys. Finally, topics which have not been explicitly covered in this review are mentioned and open problems are discussed.

EN
Results of measurements of electron concentration and mobility in mixed crystals of Hg_{1-x}Zn_{x}Se (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.07) doped with resonant Fe donors (0 ≤ n_{Fe} ≤ 5 × 10^{19} cm^{-3}) at liquid helium temperatures are presented. The data show that there is a considerable improvement of the electrical properties of the material when Fe impurities are present. The analysis of the mobility in terms of the scattering from ionized centers (accounting for possible spatial correlation of impurity charges) and the alloy scattering is in agreement with the measured data.

The results of calculation of the indirect exchange interaction between magnetic layers are presented for the case of a structure with narrow-gap semiconducting IV-VI quantum well. The main mechanism is a magnetic polarization of the size-quantized electrons and holes inside the well. This type of interaction is suggested for the explanation of recent experiments on EuS/PbS structures.

Two modes of electron gas injection in resonant tunnelling through GaAs/AlGaAs double-barrier heterostructures were revealed while studying their current-voltage characteristics. Examining peculiarities of the characteristics within the temperature range 4-350 K and under a high magnetic field, we were able to distinguish the contribution to resonant tunnelling of ballistic electrons injected from a three-dimensional electron gas in the emitter contact and that of electrons injected from a two-dimensional electron gas in the accumulation layer formed near the emitter barrier.

The first experimental evidence of the magnetic quantum oscillation in the photovoltaic effect of Pb_{1-x}Mn_{x}Se p-n junctions is reported. The p-n junctions were obtained in Pb_{1-x}MnxSe crystals with manganese content, 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.08 by introducing Cd donors by diffusion. Measurements were per formed between 5-85 K and in the presence of the magnetic field 0-7 T in the Faraday and Voigt configurations of the incident infrared radiation of various photon energies in the vicinity of the energy gap of a Pb_{1-x}Mn_{x}Se. Strong oscillatory behavior of the photovoltage was observed as a function of the magnetic field intensity at a constant wavelength of the incident light. Using the model of Adler of the energy band structure modified by the exchange terms, and after identification of the initial and final states of the transitions, we derive the band parameters of the Pb_{1-x}Mn_{x}Se crystals.

We present the results of the low temperature electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and transport investigations of the crystals of Pb_{1-x}Cr_{x}Te (x ≤ 0.01). The samples with chromium concentrations x ≥ 0.0015 are all n-type. For these samples we observe the single EPR line with the g-factor decreasing from g = 1.97 till g = 1.93 with increasing carrier concentration. This resonance can be attributed to electrically and magnetically active Cr^{3+} ions. The crystals with Cr concentration x ≤ 0.0015 may be both n- and p-type. The EPR spectrum of these samples consists of two lines: the one discussed above and the other one with g = 1.99 observed only for samples with electron concentration n ≤ 10^{18} cm^{-3}.

We present the results of the experimental studies of the low temperature transport and magnetic properties of PbTe, Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Te (x ≤ 0.3) and SnTe crystals doped with 0.5 at.% of chromium. Cr was found to be a resonant donor in PbTe and PbSnTe. Magnetic susceptibility measurements revealed that PbTe:Cr and Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}Te:Cr (x ≤ 0.2) are Curie paramagnets whereas SnTe:Cr exhibits van Vleck paramagnetism.

An effect of magnetic field on a fine oscillatory structure revealed in the resonant current flowing through double-barrier resonant-tunneling devices is examined. It is found that the observed variation of the fine structure in a magnetic field parallel to the current direction differs considerably from that appearing in tunnel current flowing through single-barrier structures. Experimental results are explained in terms of the quantum interference effect arising in structures having wide spacer layers.

In this work we have studied the structural and magnetic properties of "as-prepared" multiwalled carbon nanotubes, synthesized by the chemical vapor deposition method, and chemically modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes. Transmission electron microscopy was used to show multiwalled carbon nanotubes structure. The results of systematic magnetic property measurements on multiwalled carbon nanotubes are presented. The static and dynamic magnetic responses, such as the temperature dependence of the linear AC susceptibility and DC magnetization up to 9 T were studied. We have observed significant changes in magnetic AC susceptibility and magnetization for "as-prepared" and chemically modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes samples.

We consider theoretically the topological contribution to the anomalous Hall effect in narrow-gap IV-VI magnetic semiconductors in which the relativistic terms are relatively large and determine both the non-parabolicity of the energy spectrum and strong spin-orbit interaction. We use the relativistic Dirac model and linear response theory to calculate this contribution. Experimental data on the anomalous Hall effect in these compounds are also presented and discussed.

Self-Induced Persistent Photoconductivity in ZnTe-Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} Heterojunctions

At temperatures lower than 200 K the photomemory effect has been observed in ZnTe-Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} heterojunctions. The persistent photoconductivity can be achieved either by illumination from an external light source or by a self-absorption of the electroluminescence radiation when a voltage of about 10 V for a few seconds is applied to the diode. Current-voltage characteristics are of the form I~ V^{m}. The capacitance and electroluminescence measurements show that the photomemory effect in ZnTe-Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x} Te_{1-y}Se_{y} heterojunctions can be caused by the bistable nature of the In dopant in the Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} substrate. In the high resistivity interface layer and the substrate material indium forms centers similar to DX-like centers in Zn_{x}Cd_{1-x}Te and Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te.

We examined the current flowing through p^{+}-n junction of the lattice mismatched GaAs_{1-x}Sb_{x}/GaAs heterostructure in a transverse magnetic field at 1.8 K. We have found the appearance of current oscillations, periodic as a function of the magnetic field, that are due to the Aharonov-Bohm effect of holes passed around charged dislocations.

We report results of magnetization study of EuS/PbS superstructures with different thicknesses of magnetic and nonmagnetic layers. Reduction of ferromagnetic phase transition temperature was found with decreasing EuS thickness. Reasonable description of this effect is obtained within the model based on the mean field approximation.

Transport experiments (Hall effect and conductivity) under hydrostatic pressure up to 1 GPa at liquid helium temperatures on HgSe: Fe, Ga (N_{Fe} = 2 x 10^{19} cm^{-3}; 0 ≤ N_{Ga} ≤ 10^{19} cm^{-3}) were performed. The results show that the gallium co-doping of HgSe:Fe decreases the degree of spatial correlations between charged impurities. Under the hydrostatic pressure, used as a tool for changing the ratio of the charged to neutral impurities, this effect is even more pronounced. A qualitative agreement between the calculation within the short-range correlation model and our experimental data is achieved.

ZnTe-Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} heterojunctions were prepared by vapor-transport epitaxy of ZnTe on In-doped Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} (x = 0.05, y = 0.03) single crystalline substrate in vacuum. At temperatures lower than 120 K the infrared and red electroluminescence were observed from the ZnTe-Cd_{1-x}Mn_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} diode with forward current density in the range 0.003-4.0 A/cm^{2}.

Magnetic susceptibility of Cd_{1-x}Fe_{x}Te_{1-y}Se_{y} was found to consist of Van Vleck term (characteristic for the Fe^{2+} centers in tetrahedral crystal symmetry) and temperature-dependent contribution. The occurrence of the latter indicates an existence of additional magnetic moments. We ascribe their origin to the modification of the Fe^{2+} energy level spectrum induced by mixed Te-Se anion environment.

Thermoelectric power was studied in the temperature range 100≤ T≤300 K in 0.3-1μm thick ferromagnetic Ga_{1-x}Mn_xAs epitaxial layers (0.015≤ x≤0.06) in order to determine Fermi energy E_F and carrier concentration p. For 0.015≤ x≤0.05, at T=273 K we find E_F=275±50 meV and p=(2.5± 0.5)×10^{20} cm^{-3} (approximately Mn content independent). For x= 0.06, the Fermi energy decreases by about 100 meV with the corresponding reduction of hole concentration to p=1.2×10^{20} cm^{-3}. At T=120 K, these parameters vary between E_F=380 meV and p=3.5×10^{20} cm^{-3} for x=0.015 to E_F=110 meV and p=5×10^{19} cm^{-3} for x=0.06.

We present preliminary studies of magnetic and transport properties of Ge_{1-x-y}Sn_xMn_yTe mixed crystals with 0.091 ≤ x ≤ 0.105 and 0.012 ≤ y ≤ 0.115. Qualitative analysis of our experimental results showed the appearance of a spin-glass phase at T < 50 K. The transport characterization (resistivity and Hall effect measurements) showed that the investigated samples had semimetallic p-type conductivity with relatively large carrier concentrations (p > 10^{21} cm^{-3}) and low mobilities (μ < 100 cm^2 V^{-1} s^{-1}). The dependence of transport properties on the chemical composition of the samples was observed.
