Strain-induced high ferromagnetic transition temperature of MnAs epilayer grown on GaAs (110)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>MnAs films are grown on GaAs surfaces by molecular beam epitaxy. Specular and grazing incidence X-ray diffractions are used to study the influence of different strain states of MnAs/GaAs (110) and MnAs/GaAs (001) on the first-order magnetostructural phase transit...
