Abstract
Hydrogen-like exciton states at high magnetic fields up to 25 T are st udied by magneto-optical spectroscopy of a multiquantum well sample wi th 265 angstrom-thick wells of GaAs and 260 angstrom-thick barriers of AlAs. These excitonic states are well explained by effective mass cal culations which take into account residual electric fields in the samp le and the valence band mixing in magnetic fields. A symmetry change o f the exciton ground state is observed at a magnetic field of approxim ately 15 T.
