Abstract
We report the development of a Mn2+ focused ion beam for use in the di rect fabrication of submictometer magnetic structures. Mn-implanted Ga As bulk epilayers and quantum wells are studied by low-temperature cat hodoluminescence and polarization-resolved photoluminescence. The data demonstrate that Mn ions are magnetically active, producing optical p olarizations of 70% at 8 T.
