Abstract

Recent experiments have shown that rare earth-doped III-V nitride thin films have ferromagnetic properties that have potential impact on spintronic devices. Here we report on ferromagnetic behavior and optical spectroscopy of Gd-implanted GaN and AlN thin films. The AlN samples exhibit both luminescence and magnetic behavior at room temperature. Results indicate that magnetic and optical functionality on a single chip may be possible.
