✦ Synopsis


Magneto-photoluminescence (PL) experiments of very thin GaAs/Al 0.3 Ga 0.7 As quantum wells were performed in a magnetic field (B) of up to 20 T. It has been observed that the diamagnetic shift changes abruptly from β B 2 to α B around 5 T as B increases, and both α and β become larger as the well-width increases. This B-dependent transition is indicative of the change of electron-hole (e-h) coupling as the cyclotron radius becomes comparable with that of the exciton. The change of PL linewidth by B also supports the concept that the e-h recombination is sensitive to the dimensionality.
