Funded Activity Summary

Spin manipulation in oxide magnetic semiconductors towards spintronics applications. The project is to develop high quality diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS) with magnetic element dopant for practical spintronics applications. The properties for the qualified DMS include intrinsic ferromagnetism, effective spin manipulation, high spin polarisation and long distance of spin transport, which have not been well addressed so far. This project will investigate these issues using advance tools, including muon spin relaxation and neutron reflectometry. This project expects to establish criteria for evaluating DMS, understanding spin dynamics and mechanisms of spin manipulation and achieve qualified DMSs.
