Anticrossing of Landau levels in HgTe/CdHgTe (013) quantum wells with an inverted band structure

Abstract

The simultaneous splitting of lines of an interband transition and cyclotron resonance in the conduction band has been detected in the absorption spectra of HgTe/CdHgTe quantum wells with an inverted band structure in quantizing magnetic fields. It has been shown that it is due to the absence of an inversion center in the crystal, which results in the interaction between the lower Landau level of the conduction band and the upper Landau level of the valence band.
