Growth and Magnetism of Mn<sub>x</sub>Ge<sub>1−x</sub> Heteroepitaxial Quantum Dots Grown on Si Wafer by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

Self-assembled MnGe quantum dots (QDs) were grown on Si (001) substrates using molecular beam epitaxy with different growth temperatures and Ge deposition thicknesses to explore the interaction among Mn doping, Ge deposition, the formation of intermetallics, and the ferromagnetism of QDs. With the i...
