摘要
We present a study of che interface profile in asymmetric Cd1-xMnxTe/CdTe/Cd1-yMgyTe quantum wells, with normal (Cd1-xMnxTe on CdTe) and inverted (CdTe on Cd1-xMnxTe) interfaces, The Zeeman spectra of the confined exciton states were determined by magnetoreflectivity and Kerr rotation measurements. Using a segregation model and an asymmetric exponential profile, we interpret the Zeeman spectra of quantum wells, and determine the interface widths. For the same concentrations of Mn in the barriers and the same growth conditions, the results can be coherently explained assuming an interface width independent of the quantum-well width and the type of interface (normal or inverted).
