Identification of different Mn 3d electronic configurations in (GaMn)As ferromagnetic semiconductors and their influence on the magnetism — •Ruslan Ovsyannikov1, F. Kronast1, A. Vollmer1, H.

We studied the hybridisation of Mn 3d and Ga/As valence orbitals in (Ga$_{1-x}$Mn$_x$)As films with x between 0.007 and 0.062 using x-ray absorption techniques. The signature of Mn acceptor states responsible for long-range ferromagnetic order can be identified with x-ray magnetic circular dichroism at all Mn concentrations. An additional magnetically dead Mn species with a reduced number of 3d electrons is observed for 0.062 Mn. We provide evidence that this is due to Mn-Mn nearest neighbor pairs which bind valence holes and ultimately limit the size of the magnetic ordering temperature.
