Abstract
Magnetic and photoluminescence properties of vanadium-doped ZnSe crystals with impurity concentrations varied by changing the V amount in the source material from 0.03 to 0.30 at% are studied in 5-300 K temperature range. Investigation of magnetic properties shows that the studied concentrations of vanadium impurity that should not disturb crystal lattice are insignificant for observing ferromagnetic behaviour even at low temperatures. The contribution of V impurity to edge emission and its influence on infra-red emission are discussed. Similarities of magnetic and luminescent properties induced by vanadium and other transition metal impurities are discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
