The magnetic properties of ferromagnetic Ga0.93Mn0.07As thin films have been investigated by X-band ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy as a function of hole concentration. The hole concentration [p] was varied from 10(21) to < 10(18) cm(-3) by hydrogen passivation. We determined the limit for the onset of ferromagnetism as [p]approximate to 1x10(19) cm(-3), the critical temperatures as a function of hole concentration, and the easy and hard axes for magnetization as a function of temperature and hole concentration. The temperature and hole concentration dependences of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constants were determined. The dominant constant K-2 perpendicular to changes for T=4 K from -8x10(4) to +1 x 10(4) erg/cm(3) with decreasing the hole concentration. The anisotropy coefficient kappa(2) varies with the reduced magnetization with an expected quadratic power law. The effective g factor is different from the paramagnetic value of Mn2+ of g=2.00, due to the hole contribution; it changes from 1.90 to 1.97 with decreasing the hole concentration. In addition to the resonance positions, the FMR linewidth and intensity were analyzed. The FMR linewidth varies with the inverse of the hole concentration. Free energy surfaces are calculated for the simulation of magnetization switching.
