Semiconductors with ferromagnetism at room temperature has been actively searched for in recent years; a prospect of devices using both charge and spin continuously gives impetus to the activities. Transition metal doped oxide materials have been of particular interest. Co substituted ZnO [1] and TiO$_2$ [2] thin films, for example, were reported to show ferromagnetic properties at room temperature. However, various studies do not seem to converge on a definite picture [3,4,5]. The issue is rather fundamental: whether a system shows ferromagnetic properties at all, and in case it does, whether the system possesses a close coupling between magnetism and transport properties. In this talk, we shall assess the current status of transition metal doped oxide materials as room temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors.

Based on first-principles calculations, we study the magnetic properties of Co, Ni, Fe, V, and Mn impurities in ZnO. The stabilities of the ferromagnetic state and the magnetic moment of each impurity largely depend on the amount of doped electron or hole. For lightly doped n-type ZnO, it is found that the doping of Ni ions is the most effective for inducing ferromagnetism, while Fe ions show the most stable ferromagnetic couplings for heavily doped n-type samples. The characteristics of the magnetic interactions of Co ions are similar with those of Fe ions, but Co ions require much larger amount of doped electron than Fe ions to show the ferromagnetic couplings. The ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and V ions is unstable in n-type conditions.

First-principles calculations based on spin density functional theory are performed to study the spin-resolved electronic properties of AlN doped with a Cu concentration of 6.25%-18.75%. The ferromagnetic state is more energetically favorable state than the antiferromagnetic state or the nonmagnetic state. For $Al_{0.9375}Cu_{0.0625}N$, a global magnetic moment of 1.26 mB per supercell, with a localized magnetic moment of 0.75 $m_B$ per Cu atom is found. The magnetic moment is reduced due to an increase in the number of Cu atoms occupying adjacent cation lattice position. For $Al_{0.8125}Cu_{0.1875}N$, the magnetism of the supercell disappears by the interaction of the neighboring Cu atoms. The nonmagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition is found to occur at this Cu concentration. The range of concentrations that are spin-polarized should be restricted within very narrow.

The magnetic and structural properties of transition metal (Mn, Fe, Co) monolayers on Ta(001) surfaces are investigated theoretically by using the first principles full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. Mn and Fe monolayers become ferromagnetic on Ta(001) surfaces while Co monolayers becomes non-magnetic. The paramagnetism of Co monolayers is explained by the Stoner theory of magnetism. The magnetic coupling of a transition metal overlayer with a substrate is ascribed to the orbital hybridization between the s and d orbitals of the transition metal.

We investigated the effects of impurity doping on the electrical transport and magnetic properties of TEX>$(Ru, Sn)(Sr, La)<_2$$EuCeCu_2$$O_{z}$ samples. We found that Sn substitution fur Ru causes a significant decrease of the volume fraction of ferromagnetic phase, as well as a decrease of the temperature where the ferromagnetic component is observed. La substitution for Sr leads to an increase of the magnetic ordering temperature with a moderate change of ferromagnetic component. The experimental results are discussed in conjunction with the structural data, transport properties and a possible change of oxygen content.

A relationship between microstructure and ferromagnetic resonance of Co/Ag multilayers has been studied in as-deposited and annealed multilayers iwth ultrathin (dCo < 1 nm) Co layers. Depending on the nominal thickness of Co Co/Ag multilayers represent a system of fine magnetic particles (dCo < 0.4 nm) or discontionuous layered structure (dCo/0.5 nm). FMR data has been interpreted in the framework of a odel of interacting fine particles exhibiting superparamagnetic behavior. Changes in the FMR spectra upon annealing have been attributed to the growth of the Co particles and to a transition from the fcc to hcp atomic structure of the highly (111) textured Co particles.

The physical origins of anomalous volume effect (Invar effect) and elastic effect (Elinvar effect) are critically examined. We found that, unlike the volume effect, the shear elastic properties are not much influenced by the ferromagnetic transition. This finding shows that the two anomalies originate from different physical origins, thus contradicting the conventional wisdom. We discuss the consequences of this finding in the light of recent experiments.

For the ferromagnetic combined samples, results of x-ray diffraction patterns showed no evidence of reaction between the $La_{0.67}Ca_{0.33}MnO_3, La_{0.67}Sr_{0.33}MnO_3$ and $CoFe_2O_4$. For the amount of $CoFe_2O_4$ increased, the Curie temperature of combined samples showed no appreciable change, whereas a metal-semiconductor transition temperature rapidly decreased. For the $La_{0.67}Sr_{0.33}MnO_3$ and 20 wt % $CoFe_2O_4$ combined sample, the metal-semiconductor transition temperature was decreased to 160 K compared with the $La_{0.67}Sr_{0.33}MnO_3$ with 192 K.
