Description

MnP and Mn2P nanowhiskers have been grown by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) technique on InP(100) and GaAs(111)B substrates. The catalyst-free growth of nanowhiskers is found to be depended on the formation of Mn-based nanoclusters. The magnetic properties of the samples have been investigated by the measurements in a vibrating sample magnetometer
