Vi. Sugakov et Av. Vertsimakha, EFFECT OF MAGNETIC IMPURITY CONCENTRATION AND SPIN PROJECTION FLUCTUATIONS ON EXCITON SPECTRA IN DILUTED MAGNETIC SEMICONDUCTOR QUANTUM-WELLS, Physica status solidi. b, Basic research, 209(1), 1998, pp. 49-54
The broadening of the exciton line caused by elastic scattering of the
exciton on fluctuations of magnetic impurity concentration and spin p
rojection in CdMnTe/CdTe/CdMnTe quantum wells is calculated. The relax
ation time as a function of well width is found. The possibility of su
ppression of the impurity concentration fluctuation potential by a mag
netic field in diluted magnetic semiconductors and of a corresponding
narrowing of the exciton reflection lines in quantum wells is predicte
d. It is shown that the line broadening of the sigma(-) component of t
he exciton transition increases as the magnetic field rises, and the b
roadening of the sigma(+) component decreases. The effect of impurity
concentration fluctuations on light reflection by a quantum well is an
alyzed.
