摘要
We have investigated experimentally the effects of n-type impurities such as Al and H on the magnetic properties of ZnCoO. The carrier density changes slightly upon the introduction of hydrogen but increases significantly in the case of Al. A measurement of magnetic circular dichroism indicates that, of the two impurities, only H induces ferromagnetism in ZnCoO. Our experimental data suggest that, unlike Al, H plays an important role in the enhancement of ferromagnetic spin-spin interactions that goes much beyond a carrier-mediated effect.
