Abstract
Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) with an anomalous angular dependence has been observed in the Ge:(Mn, Al)/GaAs nanolayers deposited from laser plasma at a reduced temperature of 150°C. The resonance is associated with the needle-like inclusions of a high-temperature ferromagnetic phase with the Curie temperature T C > 293 K. Such a magnetic anisotropy is confirmed by the atomicforce and magneticforce microscopy of a side chip. A low-temperature ferromagnetic phase with normal FMR and T C < 212 K is formed between the needle-like inclusions. This phase manifests itself in the anomalous Hall effect at 77 K and probably is a solid solution of manganese in germanium.
