Transport properties and origin of ferromagnetism in (Ga,Mn)As

Magnetotransport properties of $p$-type ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As, a diluted magnetic semiconductor based on III-V semiconductors, are measured and the $p\ensuremath{-}d$ exchange between holes and Mn $3d$ spins is determined. The ferromagnetic transition temperatures calculated based on the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction using the exchange reproduce remarkably well the observed ferromagnetic transition temperatures, demonstrating that ferromagnetism of (Ga,Mn)As has its origin in the RKKY interaction mediated by holes.
