U. Bockelmann et al., MICROPHOTOLUMINESCENCE STUDIES OF SINGLE QUANTUM DOTS .2. MAGNETIC-FIELD EXPERIMENTS, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 55(7), 1997, pp. 4469-4472
We perform microphotoluminescence measurements on a series of single G
aAs/AlxGa1-xAs quantum dots of various lateral confinement in magnetic
fields up to 5 T. A diamagnetic shift and a Zeemann spin splitting of
the luminescence lines depending on the size of the structure is obse
rved. The characteristic diamagnetic shift demonstrates the excitonic
origin of the luminescence. The spin splitting increases with the exci
ton energy.
