Abstract
The magneto-optical properties of heavily iron-doped GaAs are investigated. Complex permittivity, optical conductivity and absorption coefficients are mainly discussed using spin-polarized electronic band structures close to the Fermi energy level. Furthermore, prominent magneto-optical properties in visible light and ultraviolet regions, including magnetic circular dichroism as well as complex Kerr and Faraday rotation angles, are presented and discussed. A density functional approach corroborated by some experimental results indicates that GaAs with 25% Fe dopants either in As or Ga sites is a promising ferromagnetic material and a useful platform for optoelectronic and spintronic device applications.
