Abstract
To investigate structure–property correlations, high-coercivity MnxGa nanoparticles were synthesized by the method of sequential deposition of Ga and Mn fluxes using molecular beam epitaxy. Spontaneous nanostructuring was assisted by the use of an Au precursor and thermal annealing, and the growth properties, structure and magnetic properties were characterized. Atomic force microscopy revealed average particle dimensions of 100nm and X-ray diffraction revealed a dominant tetragonal D022 crystal structure. Magnetic characterization at room temperature identified the presence of two magnetic phases, dominated by a high-coercivity (2.3T) component in addition to a low-coercivity component.
