We investigated the planar Hall effect and magnetic anisotropy in Fe/(Ga,Fe)Sb/InAs heterostructures, with particular emphasis on the Fe concentration dependence (7% and 14%) of the (Ga,Fe)Sb layer. At room temperature, the heterostructure containing 7% Fe in the (Ga,Fe)Sb layer exhibited predominantly cubic magnetic anisotropy, consistent with the body-centered cubic structure of Fe. In contrast, the sample with 14% Fe showed a dominant uniaxial magnetic anisotropy. This clear transition indicates that the Fe concentration in the underlying (Ga,Fe)Sb layer strongly influences the magnetic properties of the overlying Fe film. Furthermore, field-cooled measurements at 4.5 K revealed an exchange-bias-like coupling at the Fe/(Ga,Fe)Sb interface. These results demonstrate a promising route for tuning magnetic anisotropy in ferromagnetic semiconductor–based heterostructures.
