Abstract
Resonant photoemission spectroscopy (RPES) is used as a probe for manganese derived features in photo-electron energy distribution curves (EDCs) of semimagnetic semiconducting (SMSC) thin films of ZnMnS. Photoemission spectra, taken in the range of the Mn 3p-3d and 2p-3d thresholds, show a resonant enhancement at 3.3 eV binding energy (BE), which represents a localized Mn 3d contribution. Its dependence on photon energy reveals a Fano line shape. The partial density of Mn states in ZnMnS is compared to results obtained for CdMnTe and ZnMnSe. Additional information on the initial state configuration of Mn is delivered by RPES in the range of 2p-3d transitions.
