Abstract

We fabricated a p-n junction of p(beta FeSi2)-n(Si), so called "environmental semiconductor". Large MR of 30% in 30T at RT was obtained for a well fabricated sample. We found the optimum annealing condition of the p-n junction for the largest MR was at T=840oC, 2 hours for the deposited Fe on n-Si. Magneto-photo-transistor will be obtainable by the device in the future.
