Transparent SiC:Mn films were synthesized on 4H-SiC wafers and their magnetic and structural properties at the interface were investigated. It was found that a clear magnetic hysteresis loop can still be obtained in samples for which the top unintentionally synthesized second phases have been removed by etching. The temperature dependence of magnetization indicates that the etched sample has a Curie temperature (Tc) of 300K. Further results from the extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data analysis suggest that the Mn incorporates solely on the interstitial site in the 4H-SiC lattice. Being optically transparent with the above properties, Mn-doped silicon carbide (SiC) emerges as a viable candidate for the development of spin electronics.
