3. All II-VI RTD's with paramagnetic DMS quantum wells have been demonstrated by C. Gould, A. Slobodskyy, T. Slobodskyy, P. Grabs, C. R. Becker, G. Schmidt, and L. W. Molenkamp, Phys. Status Solidi B PSSBBD 0370-1972 241, 708 (2004). DMS ferromagnetism is most robust in (III,Mn)V materials grown by low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The growth of RTD's with (III,Mn)V quantum wells presents challenges that have not yet been met.
