摘要

The Zn1-xMnxTe bicrystals grown by the high-pressure Bridgman method exhibit magnetic-field-sensitive current-voltage characteristics. The threshold voltage of avalanche breakdown decreases by 40% as the magnetic field increases from 0 to 14 T. In the postbreakdown regime, the Zn1-xMnxTe bicrystals emit an intense red and green electroluminescence. Under magnetic field, the green emission exhibits a high degree of circular polarization which reaches 0.95 and 0.78 at 1.8 K and 4.2 K, respectively. The relation between the photon energy of the green emission and the threshold voltage has been studied.
