Scientific paper

We present a semi-analytic theory for the Curie temperature in diluted magnetic semi-conductors that treats disorder effects exactly in the effective Heisenberg Hamiltonian, and spin fluctuations within a local RPA. The exchange couplings are taken from concentration dependent {\it ab initio} estimates. The theory gives very good agreement with published data for well-annealed samples of Mn$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$As. We predict the critical temperatures for Mn$_x$Ga$_{1-x}$N lower than in doped GaAs, despite the stronger nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic coupling. We also predict the dependence on the hole concentration.
