Excitonic lifetimes in Cd 1-x Mn x Te, Cd 1-x Mg x Te epilayers and CdTe/Cd 1-x Mn x Te, Cd 1-x Mn x Te/Cd 1-y Mg y Te single quantum wells with different well widths and Mn, Mg compositions are investigated. The excitonic lifetimes are found to reduce drastically by applying external magnetic field

✦ Synopsis
An analytical approach to the problem of a negatively charged donor in a quantum well in the presence of a strong magnetic field directed perpendicular to the heteroplanes is developed. The double-adiabatic approximation is used. Firstly, the transverse motion of the electron caused by the strong magnetic field is much faster than that in the direction of the field. In the second stage the state of the 'outer' electron is governed by the short-range adiabatic potential formed by the impurity centre and tightly bounded 'inner' electron. The dependencies of the binding energy upon the magnitude of the magnetic field, the width of the well and the position of the impurity within the well are derived in an explicit form. The analytical results coincide with those obtained numerically. In principle, the presented approach is suitable for the description of a charged donor and an exciton in the quantum well in the presence of electric and strong magnetic fields.

Photoinduced screening of the piezoelectric field in 111 CdTe/CdMnTe quantum wells is studied by time-resolved photoluminescence in a single quantum well and by time-resolved transmission in a multiple quantum well. Both sets of data are well explained by a model involving in-well screening of the f
The temperature dependence of the resistivity of gated Si-SiGe quantum-well structures has revealed a metal-insulator transition as a function of carrier density at zero magnetic field. Although early scaling theories have argued against the existence of a metal-insulator transition at zero temperat
