Interplay between carrier and cationic defect concentration in ferromagnetism of anatase Ti1-xTaxO2 thin films
Thin films of Ta incorporated TiO2 grown by pulsed laser deposition under specific growth conditions show room temperature ferromagnetism. Ta introduces carriers and concomitantly cationic defects, the combination of which leads to ferromagnetism. In this paper, we report on the dependence of the ca...
