Diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) with high TC finds significant applications in Spintronics, where both electron charge and electron spin can be manipulated. Exchange bias (EB) effect plays a very important role in many magnetic devices (e.g. spin valve) by pinning or stabilizing a ferromagnetic...
