Abstract
Ferromagnetic Mn5Ge3 thin films were grown on Ge(111) with solid-phase epitaxy. The epitaxial relationship between the alloy film and substrate is Mn5Ge3(001)//Ge(111) with [100]Mn5Ge3//[11̄0]Ge. The alloy films exhibit metallic conductivity and strong ferromagnetism up to the Curie temperature, TC=296 K. These epitaxial alloy films are promising candidates for germanium-based spintronics.
