Electron paramagnetic resonance shift in II1-xMnxVI diluted magnetic semiconductors in the presence of strong exchange coupling.
Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) has been investigated in two II1-xMnxVI alloys--Cd1-xMnxSe and Cd1-xMnxS--for a series of high Mn concentrations and at low temperatures T, i.e., under conditions where the spin subsystems in these materials are strongly coupled. We have observed a very significant shift of the resonance field from the EPR position of Mn2+ ions that increases with increasing x and with decreasing T. Furthermore, the use of multiple frequencies has allowed us to attribute the observed shift to an internal field that originates from the spin sublattice within the II1-xMnxVI host.
