Thermally induced abrupt collapse of a shallow donor state in a ferromagnetic semiconductor

  • 1. Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87185

Description

We calculate the free energy of a donor interacting with spin waves and atomic displacements of a ferromagnetic semiconductor. With increasing temperature the free-energy minimum associated with a severely localized state is lowered below that of a large-radius donor. Concomitantly, large-radius donors suddenly severely localize
