The Mn was supplied by out-diffusing Mn interstitials from (GaMn)As. With 5 at% substitutional Mn the quantum dots appeared for (GaMn)As layers thicker than 500 A. For thinner layers the Mn-rich surfaces, presumably monolayer thick MnAs, are smooth and well-ordered (1x2), and are well suited for continued epitaxial growth.12 pages, 4 figuresMaterials Sciencetext
