Abstract
It was shown recently [1] that the dominant mechanism responsible for the optical detection of magnetic resonance (ODMR) in Cd1x MnxTe (x = 0.095) is related to the decrease in the sample magnetization at the Mn 2+ magnetic resonance. The large magnitude of the ODMR signal was related to a large efficiency of the Auger type nonradiative recombination of the acceptor bound exciton (ABE) [2], whose recombination is promoted at the magnetic resonance. In this communication we present the results of the ODMR and the optically detected cyclotron resonance (ODCR) experiments performed on 0.7% CdMnTe bulk samples. A different ODMR detection mechanism is deduced from the present results.
