摘要：

We present an explanation of the long standing problem of the physical origin of uniaxial magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) in epitaxially grown cubic (Ga,Mn)As. We prove that the uniaxial MAE originates from the energetic preference of the Mn ion dimers to incorporate along [-110] direction over the [110] one. This leads to lowering of the crystallographic symmetry of the epitaxially grown (Ga, Mn) As layers from cubic to C-2v, and in consequence, to the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy.
