Abstract

Compatibility of room temperature ferromagnetic chalcopyrite compounds with Si, Ge, and GaAs wafers was considered. Physical–chemical aspects of heterophase epitaxial growth were analyzed. Ternary ferromagnetic compounds II–IV–V2〈Mn〉 already successfully grown on CdGeP2 and ZnGeP2 semiconductor single crystals are suggested to serve as good heteropartners as well for spin injecting contacts on Si- and GaAs-based devices.
