Abstract

We report on a novel diluted magnetic semiconductor based on the Sb2Te3 tetradymite structure doped with very low concentrations of vanadium (1–3at%). Anisotropy in the magnetic hysteresis loops and magnetoresistance are observed at temperatures below the ferromagnetic ordering temperature. A Curie temperature of 24K is observed for Sb1.97V0.03Te3.
