Abstract
MnGeP2 and MnP thin films are grown on GaAs substrates using molecular beam epitaxy technique and their magnetic properties are compared. The easy axis of magnetization in MnGeP2 is in-plane and that of MnP is perpendicular. Results indicate the magnetic anisotropy of the two samples is different and both show ferromagnetic behavior. This suggests that ferromagnetic behavior of MnGeP2 is not originating from the precipitated MnP components.
