Mn4-xZnxN thin films (x = 0-0.6) were grown epitaxially on SrTiO3 (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. XRD and RHEED confirmed (001)-oriented epitaxial growth for all samples. Anomalous Hall effect measurements showed a sign reversal between x = 0.1 and 0.6, suggesting the presence of magnetization compensation.
