| Abstract: | Amorphous Ge1−xCrx thin films are deposited on (1 0 0)Si by using a thermal evaporator. Amorphous phase is obtained when Cr concentration is lower than 30.7 at%. The electrical resistivities are 1.89×10−3–0.96×102 Ω cm at 300 K, and decrease with Cr concentration. The Ge1−xCrx thin films are p-type. The hole concentrations are 5×1016–7×1021 cm−3 at 300 K, and increase with Cr concentration. Magnetizations are 7.60–1.57 emu/cm3 at 5 K in the applied field of 2 T. The magnetizations decrease with Cr concentration and temperature. Magnetization characteristics show that the Ge1−xCrx thin films are paramagnetic. |
