Abstract

InFeP layers were prepared by implantation of 5×10¹⁶ Fe⁺/cm² into InP wafers followed by thermal annealing at 300-600°C. The samples were studied by atomic force microscopy, magnetic force microscopy, and superconducting quantum interference device, which showed the existence of magnetic clusters on surface of samples annealed at high temperatures and clear ferromagnetic behavior with a Curie temperature exceeding room temperature. High temperature annealing tends to degrade the magnetic properties. The ferromagnetism of the Fe-implanted InP samples is interpreted by double exchange of d-electrons in the impurity band and ferromagnetic clusters (InFe alloy, Fe or Fe₃P).
