Collective excitations in asymmetric parabolic quantum wells

We study within the linear response theory the far-infrared optical absorption spectrum and the collective excitations of an asymmetric, wide parabolic AlxGa1−xAs quantum well, consisting of two half-parabolas of different curvatures, in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field. We employ a self-consistent-field approach in the local-density approximation using parameter values of a recent ex...

Single Particle and Collective Spin Excitations in Semimagnetic Quantum Wells

Collective and single-particle spin-flip excitations of a two-dimensional electron gas in a semimagnetic Cd1−xMnxTe quantum well are observed by resonant Raman scattering. Application of a magnetic field splits the spin-subbands and a spin-polarization is induced in the electron gas. Above some critical field, a collective spin-flip mode, which disperses with in-plane wave vector, dominates the...

Coupling of spin waves with charge- and spin-density excitations in spin-polarized quantum wells

The coupling of spin waves with chargeand spin-density waves is shown to be induced by a spin-dependent interaction in a quantum well, which is spin polarized by a dc magnetic field at an angle u to the symmetry axis. The mixing of the plasmonic and magnonic modes, which occurs for both intraand intersubband transitions, depends on the coupling constant of the spin-spin interaction, the tilt an...

Spin excitations of the spin-polarized electron gas in semimagnetic quantum wells.

Collective and single-particle spin-flip excitations of a two-dimensional electron gas in a semimagnetic Cd(1-x)Mn(x)Te quantum well are observed by resonant Raman scattering. Application of a magnetic field splits the spin subbands and a spin polarization is induced in the electron gas. Above 1 T the collective modes, which disperse with the in-plane wave vector, dominate the spectra. The loca...
