Abstract

We have performed spin-polarized, self-consistent local spin density total energy and band structure calculations for the prototype semimagnetic semiconductor alloy Cd1-xMnxTe. Based on the calculated band structures and taking into account the many body effects of localized states, we propose a schematic energy level diagram to interpret the d→d*, p→d, and photoemission transitions in Cd1-xMnxTe.
