The incorporation of manganese ions in I1-x-Mnx-VI compounds provides a large localized magnetic moment due to their half-filled inner 3d-shell. Because manganese forms isovalent impurities, it does not affect the carrier concentration. By co-doping with Cl, the carrier concentration can therefore be tuned independently from the Mn content. In order to investigate the influence of the magnetic moment on the transport properties, ZnMnSe:Cl samples were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on undoped GaAs substrates. The samples belong to two different series. Within the first series, the amount of Cl dopants varies by a magnitude of about 10, while the Mn concentration is retained at x≈ 6%. In contrast, the Mn concentration of the samples in the second series alters from 0% to 2%, while the quantity of the carrier concentration is kept constant. The magnetotransport measurements were performed in a temperature range from 1.6 K to 285 K in fields up to 10 T and the results will be discussed.
