Abstract
Effects of an external magnetic field on free induction decay (FID) and the Stark effect in GaAs/GaAlAs quantum wires have been investigated analytica lly. Our results show that both FID and the Stark effect become enhanced du e to the presence of a magnetic field. We have also seen that the magnetic field plays an important role in wider wires while in thinner wires, the ge ometric confinement dominates over the magnetic effects. The results are fo und to be in good qualitative agreement with that available in the literatu re. (C) 2001 Academic Press.
