Abstract:
Single crystals of Cd(1-x)Mn(x)Te for x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 were grown by a modified vapour phase growth technique. ac magnetic susceptibility studies were carried out in the temperature range 14-300 K. Both the real and the imaginary parts of susceptibility indicated the formation of spin-glass phase at low temperatures. ESR spectra were recorded at room temperature (300 K) at 9.4 GHz for samples of all compositions. The line width (DeltaH) increased with Mn content.
