Abstract

The local atomic structure of a Ga<subscript>1-x</subscript>Mn<subscript>x</subscript>As (x = 0.07) layer during the annealing process was studied by means of X-ray diffuse scattering. The difference between the pair-distribution functions before and after annealing indicated the fraction of atoms that changed concentration and identified them to be exclusively interstitial atoms at the centres of gallium and/or arsenic tetrahedra in the GaMnAs unit cell.
