dc.description.abstract | Towards the development of a magnetic semiconductor suitable for spintronic device applications in extreme environments, we explored the possibility of inducing
magnetic interaction in SiC by doping Nickel. The X-ray diffraction and Raman Spectroscopy studies confirm the incorporation of Ni into the host lattice. The
magnetic measurements and electron spin resonance studies indicate the presence of room temperature ferromagnetic interaction in the system. The Curie temperature
of 1, 3, and 5% Ni-doped samples have been found to be 420 K, 520 K, and 540 K respectively. Electron spin resonance study reveals that the valence state of
Ni is 2+, which implies the creation of vacancies at both Silicon (VSi) and Carbon (VC) sites as they are tetravalent. The change in magnetization of the system with an
increase in dopant concentration is consistent with the variation in the number of vacancies and free holes. The analysis of magnetization data using the Law of
approach to saturation shows that the anisotropic constant decreases with an increase in temperature. The long-range magnetic interaction in the system is explained
using the F+ center exchange mechanism. | en_US |
