Abstract
The magnetization (M) in IV-VI based diluted magnetic semiconductors i s expressed as a sum of contributions due to isolated impurities, pair interactions, lattice diamagnetism, and spin density due to carriers. We calculate the contribution of each of these mechanisms for p-type Pb1-xMnxTe for different x and magnetic field (H) and compare the resu lts with experiment.
