Dilute magnetic semiconductor Cu2MnSnS4nanocrystals with a novel zincblende and wurtzite structure

Abstract

Dilute magnetic semiconductor Cu2MnSnS4 nanocrystals with a novel zincblende and wurtzite structure have been successfully synthesized and reported for the first time. Cu+, Mn2+, and Sn4+ occupy the same position and have a random distribution in the zincblende and wurtzite unit cells. The nanocrystals exhibit a weak ferromagnetic behavior at low temperature.
