Magnetooptical properties of quantum wells with D (−) centers

The D ^(?) states in a quantum well under the magnetic field longitudinal with respect to the axis of growth of the structure are considered. In the context of the model of the zero-radius potential, an equation that defines the dependence of the binding energy of the D ^(?) state on the parameters of the potential of the structure, the coordinates of the D ^(?) center, and the strength of the magnetic field is derived. The results are compared with the experimental data on the dependence of the binding energy of the D ^(?) state on the magnetic field. There is satisfactory agreement between the theoretical calculations and experimental data in the range of magnetic fields B < 10 T. The role of dimensionality in the modification of the coordinate dependence of the binding energy on the 2D → 1D → 0D transition is clarified. The impurity magnetooptical absorption coefficient in a multiple quantum well structure is calculated, and the spectral dependence of the coefficient is studied. It is shown that a substantial contribution to the broadening of the absorption lines is made by the dispersion of quantum well widths in the structure.
