Abstract

An experimental study and theoretical analysis of the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in Cd3-x-yZnxMnyAs2 single crystals is presented for samples with various compositions. The contribution of spin-dependent scattering of the conduction electrons on magnetic ions to the total relaxation time is deduced from the waveshape analysis. The formula for the relaxation time corresponding to this scattering mechanism is derived and compared with the experimental data.
