Abstract
We have measured the magneto-photoluminescence in Cd1-xMnxTe/Cd1-yMgyTe qua ntum wells in magnetic fields up to 45 T at temperatures 77 and 4.2 K. We o btained the Zeeman splitting of the heavy-hole exciton as a function of the well width. From the experimental data, we obtained the effective spin com ponent and the effective temperature of single quantum wells with different well thicknesses. Our experimental results suggest that both the effective spin component and the effective temperature depend on the magnetic layer thickness. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
