Calculations are made of the energies of the dominant transition (1s t
o 2p(+1)-like) of a hydrogenic donor impurity in a multi-quantum-well
(MQW) system subject to a magnetic field applied at an angle theta to
the direction of growth of the MQW layers. The model used involves con
structing suitable basis states, and then performing a matrix diagonal
ization procedure. The results are compared to the available experimen
tal data, including the extreme cases of fields perpendicular (theta =
0 degrees) and parallel (theta = 90 degrees) to the layers. The resul
ts are also found to compare well with the results of existing variati
onal calculations.
