- The impact of hydrostatic pressure on magnetic anisotropy energies in (Ga, Mn) As thin films with in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic easy axes predefined by epitaxial strain was investigated. In both types of sample we observed a clear increase in both in-plane and out-of-plane anisotropy parameters with pressure. The out-of-plane anisotropy constant is well reproduced by the mean-field p-d Zener model; however, the changes in uniaxial anisotropy are much larger than expected in the Mn-Mn dimer scenario.

- The influence of hydrostatic pressure on the Curie temperature T-C of thin ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As layers is studied. New experimental data unambiguously point to both positive and negative pressure-induced changes of Curie temperature. The positive pressure coefficient is observed for samples with relatively high values of T-C and can be quantitatively described by the p-d Zener model of carrier-mediated ferromagnetism within the six-band k . p formalism and the ab initio approach. First-principles calculations of structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of (Ga,Mn)As show that antiferromagnetic coupling of substitutional Mn atoms with interstitial ones may account for a decrease of T-C under pressure in samples having a substantial concentration of interstitial Mn.

- The lattice mismatch between interesting 2D materials and commonly available 3D substrates is one of the obstacles in the epitaxial growth of monolithic 2D/3D heterostructures, but a number of 2D materials have not yet been considered for epitaxy. Here, we present the first molecular beam epitaxy growth of a NiTe2 2D transition-metal dichalcogenide. Importantly, the growth is realized on a nearly lattice-matched GaAs(111)B substrate. Structural properties of the grown layers are investigated by electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and scanning tunneling microscopy. Surface coverage and atomic-scale order are evidenced by images obtained with atomic force, scanning electron, and transmission electron microscopy. Basic transport properties were measured confirming that the NiTe2 layers are metallic, with a Hall concentration of 10(20) to 10(23) cm(-3), depending on the growth conditions.
