We show high-temperature ferromagnetism in new n-type Fe-doped ferromagnetic semiconductor (In1-x,Fex)Sb (x = 5-16%) thin films grown by low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy. Crystal structure analyses by X-ray diffraction, scanning transmission microscopy and transmission electron diffraction indicate that the (In1-x,Fex)Sb thin films maintain the zinc-blende crystal structure up to x = 16%. Magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy and anomalous Hall effect measurements indicate intrinsic ferromagnetism in (In,Fe)Sb thin films. The Curie temperature of reaches 350 K for x = 16%, which is the highest values reported so far in intrinsic III-V ferromagnetic semiconductors.
