β¦ Synopsis
Magnetoresistance measurements have been performed in narrow GaAs/A1GaAs wires in order to study the scattering process in mesoscopic wires. Amplitude analysis of theShubnikov -de Haas oscillations shows that electrons have two scattering times, depending upon the magnetic field range. The critical field which separates these scattering times seems to be determined by the relation between the wire width and the electron cyclotron radius. This effect is discussed in terms of the electron trajectories in a wire under the magnetic field.

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 Ξ² B 2 to Ξ± B around 5 T as B increases, and both Ξ± and Ξ² become larger as the well-w
