Abstract
The study of spin-dependent phenomena involving free carriers in magne tic semiconductor heterostructures has seen rapid advances over the pa st year, allowing fresh insights into spin transport, localization and carrier-mediated magnetism. These experiments have been enabled by th e realization of extrinsically and intrinsically doped magnetic semico nductor heterostructures derived from the Il-VI and Ill-V semiconducto rs.
